This task may benefit from being split into two - the search changes may need to happen inside the Codex library.

This task may benefit from being split into two - the search changes may need to happen inside the Codex library.

I've de-scoped this task so it no longer includes the search menu. there was a bit of pushback anyways from the Codex folks regarding whether or not links that are part of compound elements (e.g. related article cards, search result items, etc.) should be styled as links. To make things more simple we can just defer that topic for now and focus on the simpler menus.

also to note, the Log out link in the user menu is more of a button than a link. at a future date we might circle back and change that to a button.

OKay! I've merged this into T312157 as it doesn't make sense to make these changes in isolation from one another (I just wrote QA steps in the other to preserve the status quo which I've since corrected!)
