Add `find_by` to the Search module
Currently we have .search, which returns a (possibly empty) array of results, and we have .find, which returns a single result or raises ActiveRemote::RemoteRecordNotFound.
We see a common pattern when we know we need only one record, but we want nil instead of raising an error:
RemoteModel.search(:key => value).first
This MR proposes adding a .find_by method to ActiveRemote classes, which would allow us to instead write:
RemoteModel.find_by(:key => value)
The new method would be parallel to the ActiveRecord .find_by method.
