[feat] Indicate search results were hidden by the wordfilter #271

The idea

When a user searches for a post, and one is found but hidden by their wordfilter, give some indication that this is happening.

Suggestion: add a message to the detail pane saying "Results are hidden due to filter preferences"

The reasoning

When a search returns a post that is hidden by the wordfilter, the following happens:

the search results UI header shows "Posts (1)"
the post doesn't appear in the results; that is, the detail pane below the header is empty
there is no indication that the post was intentionally hidden

This is confusing.

It wasn't until I saw the header showing there were results and opened the dev tools to see that the search request was returning the post that I realised what was happening. Prior to this, I'd assumed there was some bug, or federation problem.

I think this improvement would give a clear indication that, in the case of intentionally searching for a post, the instance does actually have it, but that it was the user's preferences that caused it not to be accessible.

I have double-checked and have not found this feature request mentioned anywhere.
This feature is related to the pleroma-fe Akkoma frontend specifically, and not the backend.
