Search indexing should Ignore javascript in tags

The search engine is indexing javascript inside of <SCRIPT> tags. See #257076.
The solution is to put script javascript inside an HTML comment. This is what we had to do in the 1990's when some browsers didn't support script. And I think it's still good practice.
<script><!-- --></script>
But the search engine should know that some people don't write good HTML, and should know to just skip these.
