Add support for filters and sorting #8

The GitHub Search API allows for passing multiple parameters, including filters and sorting related stuff. We should build the frontend components to get that data from the user and enhance the API in the backend to parse that data too.

@arvind0598 I have started working on the frontend side. is this what you had in mind ?

Not exactly. Your input supports "tags" essentially, but the API supports a lot of different parameters. You'd have to do something similar to what you'd find on an ecommerce site, having separate filters for "repository size", "repository language" etc.

You can check these docs for more info.
