search: don't propose regex queries if globbing is active

Administrator requested to merge sh/fix-alert into main

Created by: stefanhengl

Relates to #12476

This PR updates alertForNoResolvedRepos to not propose regex queries if globbing is active. The alert messages are still helpful.

Background:

alertForNoResolvedRepos contains a lot of logic to propose queries, most of which is based on regex syntax. For example, if repo:a repo:b does not return results, the alert proposes to try repo:a|b. For now, we neither support AND/OR operators for filters nor | as part of an extended glob syntax. Until then we cannot propose similar queries when globbing is active.
