The SearchEntities module and the TermDisambiguation special page serve the same purpose: the return a list of items that match a given label provided by the user. The necessary code should be consolidated into a TermSearchInteractor class that supports: * exact and prefix matches (case insensitive) * matches in any set of languages, considering language fallback * retrieving the id of the matching entities, along with ** the matched term ** label and description in the user's ui language (using fallback) * sensible ranking * adjustable limits * paging (if easily doable) TermSearchInteractor, or the search service it uses, could be re-implemented easily based on different mechanism, like Elastic (see T88534 and T86949).
