Focus the search bar on "/" keypress

[igbominadeveloper]

What does this PR do?

This PR adds functionality to the site to focus the search input when a user presses the '/' key

Background context

Because the nav bar on the site is not sticky, whenever users need to perform a site-wide search, it would require a scroll back to the top of the site page they are on and then click on the search input before they can type, now, all it takes is pressing the '/' key on the keyboard and it is focused

What are relevant issue(s)?

N/A

Hey hey 👋🏼 FYI - The site was recently migrated to Gatsby (#938) so in order for this to be merged, you'd need to update/rebase the branch and fix the conflicts.

Also, out of curiosity, do you have any documentation on using the / key to trigger the search functionality? I'm not familiar with that practice.

I first saw it here on github.com and laravel.com/docs @carolstran

This would be nice addition. Cmd+K is something Docusaurus sites come with.
