GUID searches should allow a partial GUID #33

Closed WesPeacock closed 1 year ago

In the same way that git allows a partial GUID when specifying a commit, the LCMBrowser should allow a search for a partial GUID.

If this is done, it might be good to note that some of the default FLEx lists break the assumption that GUIDs are supposed to be random. E.g. The Morpheme Types CmPossibilityList (GUID:d7f713d8-e8cf-11d3-9764-00c04f186933) has the following list of possibilities some of which are the same for the first seven characters: \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \
