Description

We've drafted an Architectural Decision Record (ADR) proposing significant enhancements to the file pattern searching mechanism in iLEAPP. The ADR covers two main proposals:

1. Module and Artifact Level Patterns
2. Enhanced Contextual Search Patterns

Key points for discussion:

- The introduction of module-level and artifact-level search patterns
- Implementation of context-aware searching for different extraction types (FFS and iTunes backups)
- Pre-processing of application state information for more precise searching
- Potential performance improvements and challenges
- Migration strategy for existing plugins

The full ADR can be found at: https://github.com/abrignoni/iLEAPP/blob/lava-output/admin/docs/features/file_search_architecture.md

We'd like to gather feedback and discuss the following:

1. Are there any concerns about the proposed changes?
2. Do you foresee any challenges in implementing these enhancements?
3. How might these changes impact existing workflows or plugins?
4. Are there any additional considerations we should include in the ADR?

Please share your thoughts, questions, and suggestions.
