Respond with 404 for unavailable records

Description

Currently, if a record page is requested (by URL) for a record that does not appear in the Solr index, the response is a redirect to the search page with an error message but response code 200. To correctly follow the standards and, moreover, tell search engines that certain pages that have in their index may no longer exist, it would be better to respond with a 404 page. The page can have a link (back) to the main search page, optionally containing the query if it can be reconstructed from the URL.
