Description
What is the feature you'd like to have?
When triggering the Find / Ctrl+F modal, it would be nice to be able to select a Search Range option of Folder which would present a combo-box option of existing folders.
Is your feature request related to a problem?
Searches can be slow on large binaries - would be nice to be able to limit a search to only functions/symbols contained inside of a folder
Additional Information:
Similar to #4061

Research direction
Review the Find/Ctrl+F modal and compare the requested behavior with similar issue #4061. Determine how a Folder search range could expose existing folders and limit results to functions or symbols within the selected folder; done means the modal supports that selection and searches are restricted accordingly.
