Add free text filter to Auto-Type dialog

[hifi]

When you have a lot of Auto-Type matches for the same window title, some quick search is helpful.

The input field has default focus and up/down arrow keys are captured which move the selection in the list. To make this a bit better, it would work with multiple words split into separate filters that narrow down the list.

Note: This does not yet pass the code quality requirements. The existing view model filter is pulled with a qobject_cast<>() which may be a bit hacky.

Tested on Windows 10, works fine there as well.

One persisting issue without touching the view model filter is that the pattern column is also searched. If I were to modify that class then I'd also add multiple word filter but I'm unsure if that would break something else.

This could be merged as-is after it passes quality checks and the multi word filter could be another PR in the future.

Can someone please explain how this works, I don't get the need for this?

As an example I have a lot of Auto-Type matches for the same window, but the usernames are all different, and I don't see how someone can have several accounts with everything the same, that they are confused and need to do a search...

Hmm

I feel obligated to answer this since I implemented this feature for myself.

I manage AWS accounts in the tens at work and the amount is only going to increase. All of the accounts have a name of "AWS" and their auto-type sequence matches the generic AWS login page. Groups have the name of the customer in question. There is no way to make the auto-type sequence unique.

Compared to going through the list manually searching for the specific entry I need against typing the first few letters of the account/customer name and hitting return is much more convenient and less error prone.

When I implemented this feature I specifically wanted to keep the arrow keys functioning like before so it doesn't break the workflow of anyone not using the new search field.

This is also the entry point to a feature where you can search your whole database for an Auto-Type entry if there is none to your liking in the dialog.

@hifi so is the Title or Username you are talking about called AWS?

The Title could be; AWS1 - AWS2?

I just assumed if the Title were organized in a specific way, then there would be no need for this...

Hmm
