Feature #35843
Configuration status is named as "status" in the search syntax, which is confusing and inconsistent with other stats
Description
Most host substatuses have a full name for the host, e.g. build_status, execution_status, errata_status but configuration status used "status" due to the historical reasons. It's time to define alias of configuration_status so users can find it easily. We should keep the old name though for backwards compatibility with bookmarks and scripts.

Fixes #35843 - add alias for configuration_status searching
Historically, the configuration status was the only status users can
search hosts by. When sub-statuses were introduced we kept "status" as
the search term representing the configuration status. However with many
more sub statuses available, this is now inconsistent and hard to find.
This adds alias so that people are able to search by
configuration_status, similary to e.g. build_status. Also it keeps the
old status for bookmarks and scripts backwards compatibility.
