Search functionality

[astridos2go]

The problem

It can be a pain to search for your mods on Modrinth/CurseForge in the broswer to just to get the ID to install using Ferium

My solutions

• Adding a ferium search <search_term> command, to search Modrinth and/or CurseForge
• Ferium will automatically search for similar names when using ferium add <mod_id>, so if you type ferium add dynamic-crosshair it would come up with a message like Adding mod... The project/repository does not exist; Did you mean 'ferium add dynamiccrosshair'?

I would prefer a UI interface that updates results as you type, and as usual there will be a option-based interface too.

I think this search functionality would need to be added to ferinth and furse as there is not currently a binding for searching for projects in either afaik.

So it's ferium search then pop up a TUI. As we type, it fetches both modrinth and curseforge, combines into a sorted list, and display to us?

This seems like a big feature. Is it started yet? Im a beginner, but let me join if possible, I'll do my best.

1. As Noah mentioned, search APIs haven't been implemented in furse and ferinth (ferinth's search API is being worked on at Implement the Search API ferinth#9)
2. As I mentioned in a duplicate issue, this feature is low-priority at the moment
