Draft: Add project settings to global search

Michael Le requested to merge settings-search-helper into master

What does this MR do and why?

Adds searchable titles to the global search to link to the current project's settings

  • Links to the most appropriate settings section and opens the section if necessary.

The video below shows an example of navigating straight to protected branches from the project overview and the CI/CD settings from the Issues page.
