Message:

Admin/Comments: remove bespoke truncation from search string HTML.

This change removes a call to wp_html_excerpt() used on the HTML output of the search string, supplied by the current user in the previous page request via the named s input in the search-box UI.

If the search string is extremely long, it wraps around the available empty space in a way that is not visually displeasing, confirming that truncation is not a requirement here.

This also addresses a small accessibility concern as the non-truncated string was not alternatively presented, and helps normalize the output of $_REQUEST['s'] for more broad improvements in the future.

Props hareesh-pillai, jakubtyrcha, johnjamesjacoby, lukecavanagh, sabernhardt.

Fixes #17636.
