#6526: Add context to support forum search results

 Do a search for a word like "security". The only way to know the context
 of these items is '''if''' the OP added the name of the plugin or core
 area to the subject. Since doing so is redundant when someone is posting a
 note in a support forum dedicated to a specific area, most requests are
 not labelled such.

 See screenshot. What do '''you''' think is the context for any of those
 items ... aside from "All In One WP Security". Are the requests about
 core, a plugin, a theme, custom development?

 == Suggestion 1
 Ref #6525 (Add context to support forum topic URI). The context would show
 in the green URI and this request for enhancement would be satisfied.

 == Suggestion 2
 Note all of the requests have "Labelled ''Support Forums''. Use this meta
 field to insert context labels.
 1) Core, Theme, Plugin, or Development
 2) A slug for a theme or plugin. (Preferred since names change)

 Therefore:
 Labelled: Support Forums, Core, installation
 Labelled: Support Forums, Theme, twenty-twentytwo
 Labelled: Support Forums, Plugin, akismet

 == Suggestion 3
 Consider setting the thumbnail to something othr than the generic
 WordPress logo - perhaps the featured image for the relevant plugin or
 theme.

 == Summary
 I'd like to see all of these implemented. Any would be an improvement. TY

 == Note
 Image subject to removal on final determination of this request.
