Comment:

 I decided against implementing this feature.

 The current `search` parameter looks for addresses, not ports.  Addresses
 include OR addresses which have one or more OR ports and exit addresses
 which don't have any port.  Now, we could ignore the given port for exit
 addresses, or we could interpret searches for ports as searches for OR
 addresses only.  But both solutions are rather ugly.

 What we ''could'' do is add a new parameter `orport=:orport`.  But given
 that there may soon be a Python Onionoo which needs to re-implement
 everything that's in the Java Onionoo, I'm not going to add new features
 which may or may not be used in the future.

 Closing as wontfix.
