Addresses #2828.

We've added GitHub-style operators to the search bar (species:, contributors:, created_after:, etc.), but they aren't discoverable — a user might not know they exist or which ones are available.

Changes (WIP)

Adds an AdvancedSearch.vue component that surfaces the available operators to the user, with an advanced-filter UI (text field + toggle + active-filter chips). This is work in progress, opened as a draft to track the effort and preview it.

TODO / open questions

  • Wire the component into the search bar flow (it isn't mounted anywhere yet).
  • Implement the GitHub-issues-style autocomplete dropdown described in the issue: show all operators, filter by string match as the user types, and support click + up/down/tab selection to insert the operator into the search text.
  • Lint/type-check cleanup.

Save in-progress work on a search component that surfaces the available
GitHub-style search operators (species:, contributors:, created_after:,
etc.) to improve their discoverability, per issue #2828.

Superseded by #2843, which implements the GitHub-style operator autocomplete dropdown directly in the search field actually in use (DandisetSearchField.vue).
