Add a new status: Undecided next to Pass and Fail #4

Several data sets fail the test, due most often to too little orders of magnitude being present.

We should have a third status, in grey, that says "Your data set does not allow for a reasonable application of Benford's law" when the following condition is true: At least half of the data points is spread among at least 4 orders of magnitude.

I'm not 100% sure of the actual condition.
