Long data-block names are clipped to fit into data-block selector menus. For
linked data-blocks, there's also a hint indicating the source library, which
takes further space and may get clipped too.
So this commit adds a tooltip to the menu items, which displays the full,
unclipped data-block name and the unclipped library name. Plus, the library
path is shown too, which is also useful info.
Adds helper functions for search menu item tooltips, so these are easier to add
to other search menus in future.
Part of T84188.

Blender does string based searching in many different places.
This patch updates four of these places to use the new string
search api in `BLI_string_search.h`.
In the future we probably want to update the other searches as well.

This was reported for the "Add Node" search functionality, but is
relevant in other searches as well.
So e.g. when searching for "Separate XYZ", typing "sep", then " " (with
the intention to type "X" next) would clear the search field. Now use
the same method (matching against all search words) as in F3 searching
('menu_search_update_fn') in other searches as well [searching IDs,
property objects, finding nodes,...]
This should give a much nicer search experience in general.
Note: this does not touch other searches in the Dopesheet, Outliner,
Filebrowser or User Preferences that have other search implementations.

Regression from d6cefef98f
This also fixes an unreported issue where finding an exact match
wasn't being detected for items that contained an ID prefix.
This addresses warnings from Clang-Tidy's `readability-else-after-return`
rule in the `source/blender/editors/interface` module.
No functional changes.
Without this, only actions in the top-bar were visible
which isn't very useful.
Now menus are extracted from the areas used in the active window,
unless this search is activated by the key shortcut,
in this case the current area is used.
