whitaker's: missing meanings for words with multi dict differing principal parts spelling

[balmas]

It looks like there is a problem with the Whitaker's output when we have multiple dict elements with differing frequency or spelling of principal parts. We get only one mean element and it's not clear which dict element it applies to and the other meanings are missing. This might be a problem with our xml API enhancement to whitakers or it might be in the original source. Either way, fixing it would require revisiting the Ada code...

Example output below.

Looking at these more closely, I think most, if not all are due to differences in the spellings of the principal parts. We probably normalize this via the morph-client see alpheios-project/morph-client#17
