Replace :: with / when searching for a file (configurable) #280

Description

Add the ability to replace characters. When i have a definition in code like MarkupPrefabQueries::Locators::ProductContactForm it cant find it. I have to replace all :: to / since it finds exactly the correct file when i search for: MarkupPrefabQueries/Locators/ProductContactForm.

Off course this is a solution for me (using ruby/rails) but it can be different for other languages. Thats way I suggest to make it configurable 😉

Joining the request. Just realized that I need it desperately as well. The solution though might be to implement ignored characters list without any replacements. Those chars should be removed from the search string automatically.
