Description Brandon Dong

When searching for a task using Task Search, if it fails to find the task in your tasklist, it'll search through the repository treating the search string like a task id. A proposed solution is to search by task key instead if the repository supports searching by task key, otherwise, treat the string like an id.

If the repository supports searching by key, we'll try that first and fall back to searching by id. Thanks very much for the contribution!
