Closes #35898
Implementation Summary
This PR implements three key improvements to Gitea’s repository file browsing experience based on GitHub’s interface:
1. Repository-Wide File Search
- Added search functionality with real-time filtering
- Git grep-based search showing line numbers and matched content
- “View File” navigation for each search result
- Exceeds requirement: Full repository search vs basic tree filter
2. Add File Dropdown Menu
- Dropdown button with three options:
- New File
- Upload File
- Apply Patch
- Top-right placement in repository view
3. Context Menu (Three-Dot Menu)
- Three-dot menu in repository view
- Download options (ZIP, TAR.GZ, BUNDLE)
- IDE integration options (VS Code, VSCodium, IntelliJ IDEA)
