Feature request: Add "Collapse All"/'Expand All" option to search results

The basic unit returned from standard GitHub code search results is a file. Code search results are a list of files. Each search results shows the file name with the snippets of code containing the search keyword(s). Users would benefit from being able to view the list of files that match the search. There is currently not a way to do this. Individual search results can already be collapsed, which hides the code snippets and only shows the file name.

Adding an option to collapse or expand all search results (perhaps under the More Options/three dots menu) would allow users to view the list of files that match the search, as well as provide greater control of collapsing and expanding search results in general.
