Add the `blob:` search filter to search by Git object-id
What does this MR do?
This MR adds the blob:
filter in Code and Wiki searches.
This new filter is useful for debugging purposes, whenever we want to search for a specific document, content-wise.
To generate a Git object id for a file, simply use the git hash-object <file>
utility, or git ls-tree HEAD
.
