rustdoc-search: add search query syntax Fn(T) -> U

This is implemented, in addition to the ML-style one,
because Rust does it. If we don't, we'll never hear the end of it.

This commit also refactors some duplicate parts of the parser
into a dedicated function.

+To search for a function that accepts a function as a parameter,

+as in [`Iterator<T>, (T -> bool) -> bool`][iterator-all].
+You can also search for a specific closure trait,
+such as `Iterator<T>, (FnMut(T) -> bool) -> bool`,
