search in docstrings

Search bar offers the following options:

- Term presence. The below example searches for documents that must contain “foo”, might contain “bar” and must not contain “baz”: `+foo bar -baz`
- Wildcards. The below example searches for documents with words beginning with “foo”: `foo*`
- Search in specific fields. The following search matches all objects in "twisted.mail" that matches “search”: `+qname:twisted.mail.* +search`

  Possible fields: 'name', 'qname' (fully qualified name), 'docstring', and 'kind'. Last two fields are only applicable if "search in docstrings" is enabled.

- Fuzzy matches. The following search matches all documents that have a word within 1 edit distance of “foo”: `foo~1`

Method | `rawDataReceived` | Override this for when raw data is received.
Method | `sendLine` | Sends a line to the other end of the connection.
Method | `setLineMode` | Sets the line-mode of this receiver.
Method | `setRawMode` | Sets the raw mode of this receiver. Further data received will be sent to rawDataReceived rather than lineReceived.
Constant | `MAX_LENGTH` | The maximum length of a line to allow (If a sent line is longer than this, the connection is dropped). Default is 16384.
