Bug Description
If a non-LoC authority record lacks a control_set (often because it has no thesaurus) it will generate a dangerous overlay template.
Solution proposed (patch coming soon): In that situation, we will look for a control set that defines a 1xx authority field that the record has, as a best guess, or failing that, generate a no-op overlay.
