Consider using GKS MappableConcept in search response

[korikuzma]

I think it's kind of odd that we are using a custom gene pydantic class in search response but the ga4gh core pydantic class in another response. If there's not a (good) reason why we're doing this, I am strongly in favor of using the core class.

[korikuzma]

Maybe it's because the core in 1.x.x did not support the additional metadata fields (extensions, label, etc) as we do now

I think (?) this would mean that we wouldn't need to retain a different between xref and associated_with, also, which simplifies data storage a bit

[jsstevenson]

When this issue happens, I think we should revisit the structure and naming of the various Gene schema elements as they exist, and trim where appropriate

[jsstevenson]

^ on that note, it appears that because Genes require symbols, a bunch of lncrna/pseudogene sorta objects in Ensembl are getting skipped (this may or may not be fine).
