Support for old binomial names #31

At the moment we have no field for old binomial names but we should be able to identify also by old binomial names.

Add to the model an attribute holding an array of old binomial names. Create an index of all binomial and common names to search in with references to the crops.

Example: if you look at https://practicalplants.org/wiki/Solanum_lycopersicum you'll see the old binomial name for it (Solanum esculentum). Literature may be referencing this name instead of the new name and people should be able to identify it also by this name.

Support for synonyms for both common and binomial names will be nice later when we actually have documents that reference crops by names, but for the moment this seems low priority.
