Indexing non-direct children headings of .markdown

By default, this library will only search for headings that are direct children of the .markdown element.

If you would like to render content inside the .markdown element on a swizzled DocItem component, and want this library to index the headings inside those custom elements even if they are not direct children of the .markdown element, then add the attribute data-search-children to a parent element of the headings you want to index.

The data-search-children attribute will cause this library to look for all headings inside that element, including both direct and indirect children (E.g. 'grandchildren' nodes).

Check this issue #115 for more details.

Thanks to algolia/docsearch.js, I modified it to create this search component

And thanks cmfcmf, I used the code from his library docusaurus-search-local for multi-language support.
