Allow absolute time range to be specified by search url

[zhaih]

Right now the jira search have "Updated by" option which is very useful if I want to know what happens over the last week or so. But the time range is relative to "now" so the search result is not reproducible. It would be nice if a customized time range can be specified as url parameter (of course will be reflected by the UI) so that the search result for a certain time range can be reproduced.
