[PATCH] google search needs a space before site

The query sent to google for a site search needs a space before the 
'site' keyword.

Here is the patch.
I already applied it to centipede's forrest.cent (see 
http://www.krysalis.org/cents/forrest/index.html)

I am all for no javascript
but in the mean time someone add the space so the data is not sent as

keywordsite:domainname
but instead as
keyword site:domainname

Steven and I both implemented this.. I got to CVS first ;P  Please report
any bugs.  My local tests suggest it works.  Thanks Bertrand and Nick.

It also seems like 
http://www.google.com/search?q=keyword&sitesearch=domainname does the 
trick, too.

Note that a while ago I sent a suggestion for a version of the Google search 
that does not need javascript, but I don't think it's been used.
