POST /inventory/receipts/search
Read-only: A read that takes its filters in the body. Changes nothing, and ignores Idempotency-Key.
Searches receipts. The response has each receipt in full: its lines with their batch, serial, and bin detail, and the same fields GET inventory/receipts/:id returns.
This is the only endpoint that filters by vendor, reference number, tracking number, item, or warehouse. The collection GET inventory/receipts has none of those filters and returns no lines.
