[Bf-webcontent] wrong search engine "hint" for "get blender"

Hi Anton,

Thanks for the code, but unfortunately that whole site was generated via
some wget commands, and this is no longer a dynamic site, but tens of
thousands of individual html files. As you can imagine we can run commands
to add such code to via automated means (via some hooks into webserver/php
etc.) or via some sed/awk-fu, but this can be a huge pain. Just verifying
that all of the files didn't break from such a change would be a daunting
task.

I think that the robots.txt to discourage indexing is probably enough for
now. The sites main purpose was to give some people a way to dig up old
content that may have never been migrated over to the new site, and perhaps
provide some fond memories of the old site. Otherwise it isn't really meant
to be used, especially not indexed as the canonical source for blender!
