[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Searches including colons

[Andrew Morrison]

How are you searching this field? If you've added it to the options in 
the PUI or SUI advanced search, it should be escaping the colon for you. 
If searching via the API, you probably need to do it yourself 
<https://lucene.apache.org/core/8_0_0/queryparser/org/apache/lucene/queryparser/classic/package-summary.html#Escaping_Special_Characters>.
