Marcel Amirault 73c6477b7e Changing badges to use parentheses not brackets

Previously, we used brackets to denote the tier badges,
but this made Kramdown, the docs site Markdown renderer,
show many warnings when building the site. This is now
fixed by using parentheses instead of square brackets.

This was caused by [PREMIUM] looking like a link to
Kramdown, which couldn't find a URL there.

Search API

Introduced in GitLab 10.5

Every API call to search must be authenticated.

Global Search API

Search globally across the GitLab instance.

GET /search

Attribute	Type	Required	Description
`scope`	string	yes	The scope to search in
`search`	string	yes	The search query

Search the expression within the specified scope. Currently these scopes are supported: projects, issues, merge_requests, milestones, snippet_titles, snippet_blobs, users.

If Elasticsearch is enabled additional scopes available are blobs, wiki_blobs and commits. Find more about the feature. (STARTER)

Scope: wiki_blobs

Filters are available for this scope:

filename

To use a filter simply include it in your query like: a query filename:some_name*. You may use wildcards (*) to use glob matching.

Wiki blobs searches are performed on both filenames and contents. Search results:

Found in filenames are displayed before results found in contents.
May contain multiple matches for the same blob because the search string might be found in both the filename and content, or might appear multiple times in the content.
