💡 What: Added a dynamic keyboard shortcut hint (⌘F on Mac, Ctrl F on Windows/Linux) inside the right side of the main library search bar.
🎯 Why: The application already supported Ctrl F/⌘F to focus the search bar, but it lacked visual discoverability. This small enhancement teaches users the shortcut without adding clutter.
📸 Before/After: See the verification screenshot which demonstrates the new shortcut hint badge before any text is entered.
Accessibility: Increases the discoverability of keyboard navigation, which benefits power users and users who prefer or require keyboard interaction. The hint is purely visual (pointer-events-none) and doesn't interfere with the aria-label or tab order.

Adds a visual hint (⌘F on Mac, Ctrl F elsewhere) inside the library
search bar to improve discoverability of the existing hotkey. The hint
disappears when the user types a query.
