Freshports should suggest alternatives when accessing nonexistant port #614

Description

@clausecker

When I go to a port by typing https://freshports.org/$category/$port into the address bar and there is no such port, I get a pretty useless 404 page. It would be great if that page could suggest other categories in which the port is found.

The context is that I often look up a port by typing in the URL directly, but may get the primary category wrong. If the 404 page would show other categories that have the port, it would be easy to recover from typing the wrong category. Status code should still be 404 though.
