Essentially a simplification of find_item
qid_from_name(name = "Thomas Shafee", limit = 100, format = "vector")
name labels submitted as strings
if multiple QIDs match each submitted name, how many to return
output format ('vector' to return a simple vector, or 'list' to return a nested list)
vector of QIDs corresponding to names submitted. Note: some names may return multiple QIDs.
