Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Yes, the problem relates to the current search functionality in the Popcorn Time Desktop application. Presently, the main search interface only allows searches through the "Enter" key and lacks a clickable search button (magnifying glass icon), which is inconsistently available in the torrent search section of the application. This discrepancy can lead to confusion and limits accessibility for users who prefer or require mouse or touch inputs.

Describe the idea you'd like
I would like a clickable search button (represented by a magnifying glass icon) to be added next to the search input field in the main user interface. This button would initiate the search function similarly to the "Enter" key, making the search process more accessible and user-friendly.

Describe alternatives you've considered
An alternative would be to enhance keyboard accessibility features, such as adding tooltip hints or shortcuts displayed directly in the interface, which inform users that they can initiate searches by pressing "Enter". However, this approach still lacks the inclusivity of a clickable search button.

Additional context
The inconsistency in the user interface is noticeable as the torrent search part of the application already includes a clickable magnifying glass icon. Aligning the main search functionality with this existing feature would not only improve usability but also ensure design consistency across the platform. This change would cater to a broader range of user preferences and accessibility needs, making the application more user-friendly for everyone.
