Special case in dead-end checking which prevents the solver falling over on a grid containing a 0 (completely blank) tile. This can't happen in self-generated grids, but can happen if you type in a grid from another Net implementation. Previously, the solver would notice (technically correctly!) that a completely blank tile connects to no other tiles and thus forms an isolated subgraph, and would therefore complain that no orientation of that tile could possibly yield a valid solution...
