list_* by tags about oci-python-sdk

To add to motivations on top of symmetry in the API is to avoid a linear scan on the client side.

There is a new service coming which allows for resource searches by tag. I'll update this ticket again with a link to the API documentation when it is available.

Fantastic!

Search service is now available. The documentation is here: https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/Search/Concepts/queryoverview.htm?tocpath=Services%7CSearch%7C_____0. The Python SDK docs for the service are here: https://oracle-cloud-infrastructure-python-sdk.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api/resource_search.html

I'm closing this issue now. Please reopen it if this does not meet your needs.

This is great.. though I would like to add that the search API at least in the python doc rather opaque how to use. Would it be possible to add an example how to use ResourceSearchClient in combination with custom and freeform tags?
