Suggested fix to MultiSearchPlugin

Hi, I tried to use MultiSearchPlugin with >9 searches. I got strange results from 10 upward.

After looking at the code I thought the problem was in:

   for ( my $i = 1 ; $i <= $searchCounter ; $i++ ) {
       $header =~ s/\$ntopics$i/$totalFound[$i]/gs;
       $footer =~ s/\$ntopics$i/$totalFound[$i]/gs;
   }

For $i = 1 ntopiics1 will be updated, but so will $ntopics10, $ntopics11 and so on.

To avoid the issue I have on my machine reversed the loop. From:

for ( my $i = 1 ; $i <= $searchCounter ; $i++ ) {

To:

for ( my $i = $searchCounter ; $i >= 1 ; $i-- ) {

It now reads:

   for ( my $i = $searchCounter ; $i >= 1 ; $i-- ) {
       $header =~ s/\$ntopics$i/$totalFound[$i]/gs;
       $footer =~ s/\$ntopics$i/$totalFound[$i]/gs;
   }

So now $ntopics100 is replaced before $ntopics19 ... $ntopics10 before $ntopics1. This change has the desired result. But since I do not fully understand the implementation of MULTISEARCH I am not sure of the impact on the interval implementation (I think I have left that alone) and possible side effects in the index implementation.

A diff between original and update follows:

$ diff MultiSearchPlugin.pm.ORIGINAL MultiSearchPlugin.pm.UPDATED

Hope this helps to improve MULTISEARCH.
