feat(theseus/ctxmenu): search-for-selection in page right-click menu

Browse source 
Adds a "Search for '<selection>'" item to the page context menu when
the user right-clicks with text selected. Uses SEARCH() so it honours
whichever engine the user has picked (Startpage default, or their own
via the picker), opens in a new foreground tab so the current page
isn't lost, and truncates the label at 40 chars so a long selection
doesn't stretch the menu. Ampersands in the label are doubled so
Chromium doesn't eat them as accelerator markers.
