Find-Item : Add support for Filter

[michaellwest]

If you recall, search engines such as Solr and Azure support both Where and Filter conditions. This request is to add support for Filter.

Would like to be able to filter like the following:

$props = @{
    Index = "sitecore_master_index"
    Where = 'Paths.Contains(@0)'
    WhereValues = [ID]::Parse("{0DE95AE4-41AB-4D01-9EB0-67441B7C2450}")
    Filter = 'Language = @0'
    FilterValues = "en-CA"
}

Find-Item @props

Here is an example with Predicate. Predicate is now an alias for WherePredicate.

$criteriaLanaguage = @{Filter = "Equals"; Field = "_language"; Value = "en-CA"; }
$predicateLanguage = New-SearchPredicate -Operation And -Criteria $criteriaLanaguage

$criteriaPath = @{Filter = "Contains"; Field = "_path"; Value = [ID]::Parse("{FB05A392-1CC9-437D-A359-B807048060CF}"); Boost=25; }
$predicatePath = New-SearchPredicate -Operation And -Criteria $criteriaPath

$props = @{
    Index = "sitecore_master_index"
    WherePredicate = $predicatePath
    FilterPredicate = $predicateLanguage
}

Find-Item @props

Doesn't seem practical to support this for ScopeQuery.
