Summary:
See discussion in D6955. Provide an event for applications and users to update secondary search indexes.
Facebook: I don't recall exactly how all the search stuff is rigged up, but this might provide a more practical / less fragile alternative. I think it publishes into ElasticSearch now, and then intern somehow handles the result merge at display time, implictly relying on Phabricator's storage format? A cleaner approach might be to publish a secondary "intern" index in a standard format.
Test Plan: Ran `bin/search index --type proj --trace`, saw events fire.

Summary: Ref T3578. Get indexing back, and try to simplify it a bit.
Test Plan: Rebuilt QUES and MOCK indexes with `bin/search`. Created question with unique string, verified it appeared as a result. Added an answer with a unique string, got it as a result too.

Summary:
The search indexing API has several problems right now:
- Always runs in-process.
- It would be nice to push this into the task queue for performance. However, the API currently passses an object all the way through (and some indexers depend on preloaded object attributes), so it can't be dumped into the task queue at any stage since we can't serialize it.
- Being able to use the task queue will also make rebuilding indexes faster.
- Instead, make the API phid-oriented.
- No uniform indexing API.
- Each "Editor" currently calls SomeCustomIndexer::indexThing(). This won't work with AbstractTransactions. The API is also just weird.
- Instead, provide a uniform API.
- No uniform CLI.
- We have `scripts/search/reindex_everything.php`, but it doesn't actually index everything. Each new document type needs to be separately added to it, leading to stuff like D3839. Third-party applications can't provide indexers.
- Instead, let indexers expose documents for indexing.
- Not application-oriented.
- All the indexers live in search/ right now, which isn't the right organization in an application-orietned view of the world.
- Instead, move indexers to applications and load them with SymbolLoader.
Test Plan:
- `bin/search index`
- Indexed one revision, one task.
- Indexed `--type TASK`, `--type DREV`, etc., for all types.
- Indexed `--all`.
- Added the word "saboteur" to a revision, task, wiki page, and question and then searched for it.
- Creating users is a pain; searched for a user after indexing.
- Creating commits is a pain; searched for a commit after indexing.
- Mocks aren't currently loadable in the result view, so their indexing is moot.
