> When users have hundreds or thousands of entities to manage, they may not remember the exact name/tag of the entity. We would like to provide a more convenient way for the user to search an entity by providing keywords in name and tags. We also plan to provide a search UI, similar to Visual Search, to allow the user to enter keywords in a search box and display the filtered results. The user can click on the entity to view details and search its instances as well.
> To support free-text search, we plan to extend the LIST API:
> GET api/entities/list/:entity-type
> Parameters changed/added:
>     1) :entity-type   Comma-separated entity types. Can be empty. Valid entity types are cluster, feed or process.
>     2) nameseq     Subsequence of entity name. Not case sensitive. Example: "Sample1" is a subsequence of entity name "SampleFeed1". Note that we rename "pattern" parameter to "nameseq" to make it more intuitive to the user, but the functionality is already there in Falcon-914 .
>     3) tagkeys        Tag keywords, separated by comma. Not case sensitive. The returning entities must have tags that match all the tag keywords.
>     4) Clean up the parameter "tags" and the name filter in filterBy option, which match the full tag and the full name, respectively.
> Results
>     Return the total number of entity results and a list of entities.
> e.g. falcon entity -list -nameseq housetexas -tagkeys estate
> This should return the entity with name "houseSellTexas" and tags "category=realestate".
> Falcon CLI will be changed accordingly as well.
