Description

This PR marks the introduction and subsequent enhancements of the search functionality in the application's frontend. It begins with the initial addition of a search bar in the navigation pane, followed by a series of improvements for better user experience and efficiency. These enhancements include the integration of Material UI's Autocomplete component, refined search logic, improved option string handling, and the ability to fetch siblings in the ListOfRegions.jsx. Additionally, comprehensive documentation for the new search feature has been added, covering UI/UX considerations and backend interaction.

Closes: #151

How Was This Tested?

Testing was conducted through hands-on interaction with the search feature. Various regions were searched to evaluate the UI response. This included testing with specific region names and partial path inputs (e.g., "Germany Berlin"), to assess the accuracy and efficiency of the search results. The performance of the Material UI's Autocomplete component, in terms of user experience and functionality, was also a key aspect of the testing.

Issue: #151

Replaced the manual dropdown search implementation with Material UI's
Autocomplete component. This simplifies the Search component by removing
unnecessary state and event handlers. The Autocomplete component also
provides a better user experience by automatically filtering and
displaying search results.

Issue: #151

Signed-off-by: Nikolay Martyanov <ohmspectator@gmail.com>
The search component functionality was improved by making it more
interactive and user-friendly. The search results now return the
smallest unique path segment in case of duplicate names, enhancing user
experience. The dropdown visibility is also managed based on the search
results. This ensures that the dropdown only appears when there are
actual search results. Additionally, the 'selectedRegion' state is now
updated with detailed region information obtained from the API,
providing more context to the user.

Issue: #151

Signed-off-by: Nikolay Martyanov <ohmspectator@gmail.com>
The Search component has been updated to check if the selected region is
the same as the search term, and if so, the function will return early.
This change prevents unnecessary searches when the selected region and
search term are identical. Additionally, the commit improves the
function that transforms an option into a string representation, making
it more robust. If the option is a string, it is returned directly. If
it is not an object or does not have a name property, an empty string is
returned. Lastly, the unnecessary console log in the onInputChange event
handler has been removed.

This commit refactors the ListOfRegions.jsx file to fetch the siblings
of a selected region. The changes include:
- Importing the `fetchAncestors` function from the API module.
- Modifying the `fetchRegions` function to fetch the siblings of a
  selected region if it does not have any subregions.

The process involves fetching the parent of the selected region (which
is the second item in the ancestors array) and then fetching its
subregions.

This commit introduces the `useRef` hook inside the `Search` component
in the frontend. The `useRef` hook is used to keep track of the
`selectedRegion` and to determine whether the `selectedRegion` has
changed. This is done to prevent unnecessary API calls when the
`selectedRegion` has not actually been modified.

Issue: #151

Signed-off-by: Nikolay Martyanov <ohmspectator@gmail.com>
Modified the Search component to allow force searching by pressing the Enter
key. This change was implemented by creating a new state variable 'searchTerm'
as an object with 'name' and 'force' properties. The 'force' property is set to
true when the Enter key is pressed, triggering the fetchResults function to
execute immediately rather than waiting for the user to stop typing.
