Add some docs for the search autocomplete

Dylan Griffith requested to merge 241055-document-search-shortcuts into master

What does this MR do?

This is just a small change to include some docs related to what the search bar can autocomplete. It seemed counterproductive to actually enumerate the exact things it autocompletes as this is the kind of thing that can and will easily get out of sync with the code. Also it would mean seem pointless to read a list of exact things (eg. the settings pages etc.) you can type in the box and have it link you to those pages when the docs could just link you to those pages.

Still I tried to at least have a section in our docs that describes the high level behaviour of this autocomplete and we can add to it as we add different types of things to autocomplete such as #239166 (closed) .
