*Summary:* Add a property to control findability of content.

This is already somewhat implicitly controllable via properties like
visibility, content-visibility, or abusing limitations of the current find
implementations, but more fine-grained control is useful in various
situations.

For example, lack of this control causes performance issues in GitHub vs.
other browsers, as described in
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1868316. Other use cases are
described in the relevant CSSWG issue (linked below).

GitHub has started using this in Nightly already, see
https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/77953.

*Specification:* Active proposal in
https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/3460.
*Standards body:* CSS working group
*Platform coverage:* All
*Preference:* layout.css.user-find.enabled
*Link to standards-positions discussion:* None (should I file one?)
*Other browsers:* Not implemented
*web-platform-tests:* I added a few tentative WPTs in the bug already.

Thanks,
