emacs: Fix search tab completion in terminals
In X, Emacs distinguishes the tab key, which produces a 'tab event; from C-i, which produces a ?\t event. However, in a terminal, these are indistinguishable and only produce a ?\t event. In order to simplify things, Emacs automatically translates from 'tab to ?\t (see "Function key translations" in M-x describe-bindings), so functions only need to be bound to ?\t to work in all situations. Previously, the search tab completion code usedq (kbd "<tab>"), which produced the event sequence [tab], which only matched the 'tab event and hence only worked in X. This patch changes it to (kbd "TAB"), which matches the general ?\t event and works in all situations.
