Refactor authors dropdown (send get request from frontend to avoid long wait time) (#23890)

Right now the authors search dropdown might take a long time to load if
amount of authors is huge.
Example: (In the video below, there are about 10000 authors, and it
takes about 10 seconds to open the author dropdown)

Possible improvements can be made, which will take 2 steps (Thanks to
@wolfogre for advice):

Step 1:
Backend: Add a new api, which returns a limit of 30 posters with matched
prefix.
Frontend: Change the search behavior from frontend search(fomantic
search) to backend search(when input is changed, send a request to get
authors matching the current search prefix)

Step 2:
Backend: Optimize the api in step 1 using indexer to support fuzzy
search.

This PR is implements the first step. The main changes:
1. Added api: `GET /{type:issues|pulls}/posters` , which return a limit
of 30 users with matched prefix (prefix sent as query). If
`DEFAULT_SHOW_FULL_NAME` in `custom/conf/app.ini` is set to true, will
also include fullnames fuzzy search.
2. Added a tooltip saying "Shows a maximum of 30 users" to the author
search dropdown
3. Change the search behavior from frontend search to backend search

After:
