search: introduce basic limiter

Warren Gifford requested to merge master-dry-run/sh/basicLimiter into main

Created by: stefanhengl

This adds a limiter to our GraphQL API that limits requests from anonymous callers. The rate limit is configurable through the site configuration.

There was already a much more sophisticated, but disabled, rate limiter in place that currently undergoes testing. This new limiter is a heavily simplified version of the existing limiter which we can use for the time being.

To abstract from the implementation, I created 2 new interfaces "Limiter" and "LimitWatcher".
