19579,Make get_search_form() more filterable/extensible,chipbennett,,"I notice that a lot of the time when Themes include custom search form markup via `searchform.php`, they are making very minor changes to the default markup. (A common on is adding onfocus/onblur attributes to the input.) Unfortunately, I've also noticed that custom search form markup tends to be... forgotten, and ends up becoming more insecure over time. 

So, in the interest of encouraging/facilitating use of the core markup, I propose making `get_search_form()` more extensible, similar to the extensibility of `comment_form()`.

This patch replaces `$echo = true` with `$args = array()` as the parameter passed to `get_search_form()`, while retaining backward compatibility with `$echo = true`. Also, a (self-explanatory) `search_form_defaults` filter is added.

Does '''not''' address #16541, which is potentially related.

Probably '''conflicts''' with #14851
