[issue36595] IDLE: Add search to Squeezed Output text viewer.

[Terry J. Reedy]

I agree.  The Squeezed Output Viewer is an instance of idlelib.textview.ViewWindow.  The latter is for read-only text and is also used for the text displays invoked from About IDLE.  I have already thought about making the text searchable.  Seaching does not require that the text be editable.

An initial implementatation might be a [Search] button that opens the current search dialog linked to the text in the window.
