Feature OCR

@joplinapp Really nice feature! Thanks a lot for the effort.
I noticed that in your video the search does look different to my Joplin Desktop application where search is just an input field instead of a popup. And I wondered why the media files that match the search query are displayed as some kind of (unremovable) banner at the top of the note. Is that adjustable or are you using a preview version of Joplin?
@copperhead12 Hello, thank you for your feedback!
For the search function, it's the go to anything function, it has the same principle as the search function as said in the video but I used it out of habit.
For the second part of your question, I don't know which media you're talking about. If it's the image with the Joplin preview, it's simply a media that I had added in advance in the note to show the OCR function.
@joplinapp I have been using Joplin for over 5 years and I didn't know that there is another search function with "Go > Goto Anything...". That explains it. Thank you!
When using the filter input field, the results of the media files are displayed at the top of the note. There can be a lot of results so that the visibility of the note is restricted as this "banner" keeps being on the top when scrolling. Not a big deal, but sometimes annoying.
