Improve fuzzy search (#279)
* Add SearchMode fzf.

Add a new search mode "fzf" that tries to mimic the search syntax of
https://github.com/junegunn/fzf#search-syntax
This search mode splits the query into terms where each term is matched
individually. Terms can have operators like prefix, suffix, exact match
only and can be inverted. Additionally, smart-case matching is
performed: if a term contains a non-lowercase letter the match will be
case-sensitive.

* PR feedback.

 - Use SearchMode::Fuzzy instead of SearchMode::Fzf
 - update docs
 - re-order tests so previous fuzzy tests come first, add more tests for each operator

* PR comments: remove named arguments, match expression

* PR comments: macro -> async func

# Config
Atuin maintains two configuration files, stored in `~/.config/atuin/`. We store
data in `~/.local/share/atuin` (unless overridden by XDG\_\*).
You can also change the path to the configuration directory by setting
`ATUIN_CONFIG_DIR`. For example
```
export ATUIN_CONFIG_DIR = /home/ellie/.atuin
```
## Client config
```
~/.config/atuin/config.toml
```
The client runs on a user's machine, and unless you're running a server, this
is what you care about.
See [config.toml](../atuin-client/config.toml) for an example
### `dialect`
This configures how the [stats](stats.md) command parses dates. It has two
possible values
```
dialect = "uk"
```
or
```
dialect = "us"
```
and defaults to "us".
### `auto_sync`
Configures whether or not to automatically sync, when logged in. Defaults to
true
```
auto_sync = true/false
```
### `sync_address`
The address of the server to sync with! Defaults to `https://api.atuin.sh`.
```
sync_address = "https://api.atuin.sh"
```
### `sync_frequency`
How often to automatically sync with the server. This can be given in a
"human readable" format. For example, `10s`, `20m`, `1h`, etc. Defaults to `1h`.
If set to `0`, Atuin will sync after every command. Some servers may potentially
rate limit, which won't cause any issues.
```
sync_frequency = "1h"
```
### `db_path`
The path to the Atuin SQlite database. Defaults to
`~/.local/share/atuin/history.db`.
```
db_path = "~/.history.db"
```
### `key_path`
The path to the Atuin encryption key. Defaults to
`~/.local/share/atuin/key`.
```
key = "~/.atuin-key"
```
### `session_path`
The path to the Atuin server session file. Defaults to
`~/.local/share/atuin/session`. This is essentially just an API token
```
key = "~/.atuin-session"
```
### `search_mode`
Which search mode to use. Atuin supports "prefix", full text and "fuzzy" search
modes. The prefix searches for "query\*", fulltext "\*query\*", and fuzzy applies
the search syntax [described below](#fuzzy-search-syntax).
Defaults to "prefix"
```
search_mode = "fulltext"
```
#### `fuzzy` search syntax
The "fuzzy" search syntax is based on the
[fzf search syntax](https://github.com/junegunn/fzf#search-syntax).
| Token | Match type | Description |
| --------- | -------------------------- | ------------------------------------ |
| `sbtrkt` | fuzzy-match | Items that match `sbtrkt` |
| `'wild` | exact-match (quoted) | Items that include `wild` |
| `^music` | prefix-exact-match | Items that start with `music` |
| `.mp3$` | suffix-exact-match | Items that end with `.mp3` |
| `!fire` | inverse-exact-match | Items that do not include `fire` |
| `!^music` | inverse-prefix-exact-match | Items that do not start with `music` |
| `!.mp3$` | inverse-suffix-exact-match | Items that do not end with `.mp3` |
A single bar character term acts as an OR operator. For example, the following
query matches entries that start with `core` and end with either `go`, `rb`,
or `py`.
```
^core go$ | rb$ | py$
```
