[JENKINS-49145] discover jenkinsfile in the repo

It'll useful to let the plugin find itself the jenkinsfile on a repo. Many user push multiples applications on the same repo. So it's difficult to set in the job configuration where is located the jenkinsfile. An option to discover them will be very appreciate.

The issue names the workflow-multibranch-plugin and asks for Jenkinsfile discovery across repositories, but it does not identify an implementation file, test, or entry point. Start by locating the plugin's repository-discovery and job-configuration code, then define the discovery behavior and verify it with tests covering repositories containing multiple applications.
