🐛 Fixed escaping search terms that contain special characters (#18151)
fixes https://github.com/TryGhost/Ghost/issues/18133

Before, Sodo Search was not escaping search input before using the search terms in a regular expression, so using special characters could result in an invalid regular expression which would crash JavaScript.

As regular expressions date back to Perl, so does a standard solution for this, which called quotemeta in Perl. It doesn't exist 1:1 in JavaScript, but StackOverflow had the answer: stackoverflow.com/questions/6318710/javascript-equivalent-of-perls-q-e-or-quotemeta

So a line of code is added to escape the special characters in the regex for passing them through. This is the same code that the quotemeta module on NPM would use.
