Now that we've added the ability to search by using metadata (epic ticket: T144447), we'll want to document how to do this as well as announce this to the community.

Please review/fix/improve. Announcement should be after we reindex (T145561).
@Smalyshev I took a look at the documentation. Thank you for adding it! I fixed a few things and formatted things a little.
I added an update to Discovery's weekly update. This is almost done. Do we want to announce this to any mailing lists?
I sent a short announcement to the commons, discovery-l and wikitech mailing lists. It's also added to the next issue of Tech/News for 21 November.
