Description

This PR introduces a new search functionality for the BlogCategoryService, allowing users to search for blog categories by name. The search is case-insensitive and supports partial matching, improving the user experience and content discoverability. Additionally, comprehensive unit tests have been added to ensure the functionality works as expected.
Key changes:

• Added a new searchCategories method to BlogCategoryService.
• Implemented case-insensitive and partial matching using TypeORM's createQueryBuilder.
• Added unit tests for the search functionality, covering edge cases like empty search terms, special characters, and no matches.
• Updated the API documentation to reflect the new search endpoint.
