Description
### Description
As of now we can search a string in a project but to narrow down the search it will be useful to allow search in result. Right now if we search then a search popup appears. We put the search criteria in it and it shows the result at the bottom of the window, In a panel. What I am requesting is that it will have one more icon at the left bar of the search panel. If we click on it, It will show a new search popup and if we put search criteria then it will search in related search results. that is search inside search or cascaded search. Notepad++ offers this feature from a long time.
### Use case/motivation
It will be vary useful if we can search inside the results

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are identified in the issue. Start by locating NetBeans' existing project-search result panel and its search controls, then determine how a second query could be scoped to the displayed results. Done means the search panel offers the requested control and a follow-up query narrows the current results.
