Search other platform folders for command if not found under current platform or common

tldr scriptreplay via c-client returns "this page doesn't exist yet" (of note, this also happens on https://tldr.ostera.io/)
Yet the node tldr returns the tldr page.

What OS / distro are you on?
The web client works correctly, however as it's a Linux page, you have to prefix it.

macOS Ventura 13.1
The C client will only look for a page for your current OS + common if you don't specify the --platform flag. The client spec does recommend this however:
If a page is not available for either the host platform or the common platform, then clients SHOULD search other platforms and display a page from there - along with a warning message.
The fix here would be to make the C client look at other platforms till it finds a page.
After analysis, I think the function to be enhanced is print_tldrpage,
I have started to work on it, can I take on this issue?
