Title:
  Can't find users from other institutions in search

Bug description:
  Mahara 15.10+

  When Mahara has internal search (not Elasticsearch), I can't filter
  for friends or people just from my institution. The default setting
  for any user who is in an institution is to only search within that
  user group first. Only upon changing the context to "everyone" would
  they be able to search for everyone. Only site admins can search for
  everyone instantly.

  See http://manual.mahara.org/en/15.04/groups/find_friends.html#find-
  friends for how it worked in Mahara 15.04

  Currently, the 15.10 search box does not have the option to filter for
  the context and only displays users from my own institution. There is
  no way of finding others.
