Description

Background
While working on T398428:, design proposed a change to highlight the search query in MultiselectLookup menu items, similar to TypeaheadSearch. The requested capability can be seen in MenuItem codex documentation. In order to prevent scope creep, we split this work out into a separate task.

The tasks's first goal is to modify the MultiSelectLookup MenuConfig to include searchQuery and highlightQuery as configurable properties, with the ultimate goal of enabling search query highlighting in MultiSelectLookup's menu items.

Acceptance Criteria

Enable search query highlighting for MultiSelectLookup's menu items

Antigoals

Avoid any menuConfig changes that are not strictly needed for search query highlighting.
