      Clarify conformance language re search via POST and GET:

       SHALL also support a POST based search:

      Is interpreted to mean POST and GET SHALL be supported by the server.

      This discussion clarifies that it is not the case:  https://chat.fhir.org/#narrow/stream/179166-implementers/topic/Search.20via.20POST

      The intent is that servers SHALL support POST and SHOULD support GET

      Suggested  text to clarify:

      The interaction can be performed by several different HTTP commands.  Servers that support search _SHOULD support search via GET method._

      ...

       Servers t_hat support search_ SHALL support search via POST method.

      ...
