Empty pages without numbering
Empty pages before chapters starting at odd pages
This snippet has been broken on 0.12.0. If someone will help fixing it, this would be cool.

= The explanation
```
These queries reveal where the corresponding tags are found. The actual empty page is always at the location of the label <empty-page> + 1. If an empty page is actually inserted by the pagebreaks, the two labels will cover the page of the heading and one page before that. If no empty page was inserted, both labels will point to the same page which is not an issue either. And even then we can check for the <new-chapter> label first to give it a higher priority.
The first <empty-page> label is always on page 1 and can just be ignored since it points to the (non-existing) empty page before the first chapter.
pages with the label <empty-page>: #context find-labels(<empty-page>)
pages with the label <new-chapter>: #context find-labels(<new-chapter>)
```
= A heading
#lorem(190)
= Another heading
#lorem(100)
= The last heading
#lorem(400)
