[Enhancement] Bad Breaks Search

Sadly I am not a engineer, but if anyone finds the challenge interesting I'm happy to help with testing, etc. Thanks everyone for making this such a great application and plugin.

USER STATEMENT
As a Calibre user, I would like to be able to detect books with "Bad Breaks" so that I can repair or replace them with more readable versions.

BACKGROUND
As a result of poor conversion there are often books that have "Bad Breaks", where a line break is inserted mid sentence. This results in a new line that typically begins with a lowercase letter. This is very common and likely one of the biggest quality and readability issues with many Calibre user libraries. Unfortunately, there is no easy way to search an entire library and identify books that have Bad Breaks.

ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA
* User is able to search an entire library for books that have bad breaks
* User can search mobi, epub and azw formats
* User is able to set a threshold for number of bad breaks identified
* Results are displayed in filtered view

EXTRA CREDIT
* User is able to sample book and set page size or word count for sample size
* User can search additional document formats
