Updated Views/Tenant/Index to have a form, the name=searchQuery match…

…es the parameter name in the TenantController's Index action (string searchQuery). When the owner types in the search field and submits the form, the browser sends the GET method request with th input value appended as a query string, like this: /Tenant/Index?searchQuery=example. Then, the TenantController receices the value of searchQuery from the queryString, if searchQuery is not null/empty, the code: tenants = tenants.Where(t => t.email.Contains(searchQuery)); filters the list of tenants to include only those whose Email contains the value of searchQery. Next, the filtered list of tenants is converted to a List and passed to the view: return View(tenants.ToList());. Finally, the view displays the results dynamically using the filtered data.
