History: Search front-end

As of 2023-02, some great work is ongoing to make the ((Manticore Search)) support great, while maintaining the current good support for ((doc:Unified Index Comparison|other engines)). So our back-end search is mature, but what about the front-end? It is pretty basic and we can do a lot better.

As per ((How to pick a software library)), let's research options.
