Added the mapping of 5/4 to all 5-limit temperaments. Added 7/4 mapping to 2.3.7 clans, etc. Did a little cleanup.

===[[Dimipent family|Dimipent or Quadgu family]] (P8/4, P5)===
The dimipent (or diminished) family tempers out the major diesis or diminished comma, [3 4 -4> or [[648/625]], the amount by which four 6/5 minor thirds exceed an octave, and so identifies the minor third with the quarter-octave. Hence it has the same 300-cent 6/5-approximations as [[12edo]]. 5/4 is equated to 1 fifth minus 1 period.

=== [[Negri|Negri or Laquadyo family]] (P8, P4/4) ===
This tempers out the [[negri comma]], [-14 3 4>. Its generator is ~16/15 , four of which make ~4/3. 5/4 is equated to 3 generators.
