Opensearch query builder

[fira]

About the pull request

Adds an in-game REST API client to query logs for the current round from OpenSearch.

The UI is rather simple, but comes with a few noteworthy features:

• Queries can be created with ckey straight from Player Panel
• Queries can be used collaboratively, and linked in Asay like tickets with ~ tilde
• Queries can be written in Lucene syntax, which enables Boosting and Fuzzy Search
• Queries can be sorted by time as usual, but also by relevance using Results Score, letting you find the closest matches instead of the most recent ones
• Results have JMP links to the location of the event if present, or you can click on the CKEY to open the relevant Player Panel
• You can filter to only show logs relevant to proximity of a certain place

Explain why it's good for the game

Smoother flow for simple log queries, directly ingame.

With results score ranking it also becomes possible to just take a shotgun approach by throwing relevant words and letting OpenSearch find closest matches, rather than fiddling with filters for days.

Testing Photographs and Procedure

It needs the backend to work so you'll have to try it live

Player panel button. You can also use .opensearch verb or the one in Admin verbs.

Example query made by the PP

How an example query with range filtering ends up when opening it on Dashboards

Writing keywords and letting the backend do its search job also becomes an option to find important events, without needing to slowboat through the entire stream of time sorted logs:

This needs a tooltip explaining what it does. See https://github.com/cmss13-devs/cmss13/blob/master/tgui/docs/component-reference.md#tooltip Also may look nicer capitalized to Rewind.

I wanted to but none of these elements accept a tooltip. Might need to put an info bubble next to it

[Drulikar]

Using the component Tooltip (never not available) is different than the property tooltip (if available).

[fira]

Still need to do this aswell

[fira]

I ended up putting a disabled gray button because the TGUI docs encourage doing that rather than using deprecated Tooltip

[fira]

Changed a lot to try to streamline and fix bugs. Got rid of a lot of backend handling for stuff that was halfbaked.

Still have to address the 2 comments from Drathek above
