Ability to validate search string without making query about search_cop HOT 3 CLOSED

After digging into the code this may seem fairly trivial to add to the SearchCop module as another ClassMethod. Unfortunately I don't think I'll have the time to make a proper PR this weekend.

# raises an error or returns the query
def validate_search_scope(query, scope_name)
  QueryBuilder.new(self, query, search_scopes[scope_name])
  query
end

from search_cop.

sounds reasonable, i'll take a look at it asap.

Well, you actually can simply do MyModel.unsafe_search("query").to_sql or MyModel.unsafe_search("query"). As SearchCop returns an AR::Relation the query of course gets lazily evaluated. So i'm not sure adding validate_search_cop! provides much benefit.
