@fchasen this pull-request will need recent changes on main and to update the package version rc candidate number before being merged.
- Adds the `pagefind` library and `removes` lunr - Updates the search plugin to index HTML pages and figures using a new `SearchIndex` class - Output the search index to `_search` along with the frontend API files that PageFind builds - Adds pagefind data attributes as meta tags and on `.quire-page` to pass page metadata to the index - Updates the existing search UI to use the pagefind API - Adds the Sinon library for creating test mocks - Adds tests for SearchIndex using mocks for the pagefind methods - Bundles the pagefind search API and imports it when `loadSearchData` is called, so pagefind will load the index using wasm.

This pull request is ready for final review by the Quire team
Please briefly describe the goal of this pull request and how it may impact Quire's functionality.
This switches from using Lunr for search to using PageFind. PageFind allows for more complex indexes that include figures and object data, search ranking of page sub-results and faster retrieval using their API and the wasm index that it outputs.
Does this pull request necessitate changes to Quire's documentation?
These changes only update the indexing and search API, maintaining the existing search UI and configuration.
Please describe the changes you made, and call out any details you think are particularly relevant for the Quire team to note in their review.
