Fix DNN Search Integration Implementation for DNN 10.x and Beyond

[Copilot]

Summary

This PR updates the ExpandableText module to use modern DNN search integration through the ModuleSearchBase approach, replacing the older commented-out ISearchable implementation. This ensures proper search indexing in DNN 10.x and beyond.

Implementation Details

• Created a new ExpandableTextHtmlModuleSearchBase class that inherits from DNN's ModuleSearchBase
• Implemented the GetModifiedSearchDocuments method to properly index all expandable text content
• Added proper filtering based on modified date to support incremental search indexing
• Ensured all required metadata is included in search documents (title, content, last updated date, etc.)
• Updated release notes to reflect the new feature (version 06.02.00)

Approach

The implementation follows a minimal-change approach:

• No existing code was modified (the old commented-out search code was left intact for reference)
• New functionality was added through a dedicated class that follows DNN 10.x standards
• Proper metadata handling ensures search results will be accurate and include all relevant module content

Testing

The new implementation ensures that:

• All expandable text items are properly indexed in DNN's search system
• Only modified content is included in incremental indexing
• Search results will properly link back to the module

Fixes #5.

@copilot Given the nature of DNN implementation this must be added to the existing ExpandableTextHtmlController class, can you adjust that class to contain this implementation

I've moved the search implementation into the existing ExpandableTextHtmlController class as requested. The controller now inherits from ModuleSearchBase and implements the GetModifiedSearchDocuments method directly. This implementation maintains the same functionality while following the DNN implementation pattern you suggested. The changes are in commit eb2cc19.
