People: Followers/Viewers tab does not have a search option like other tabs

[KokkieH]

Steps to reproduce

1. Starting at URL: https://wordpress.com/people/
2. Click on Followers
3. Click on Viewers (for a private site)

What I expected

To see a search icon to search for a specific user, as appears on the Team and Email follower tabs.

What happened instead

The Followers and Viewers tabs don't show any search option.

Context / Source

Reported in the support forums by a user who wishes to remove a spam follower, but as the site has a high follower count they need to scroll manually through a long list to try and find the follower in question.

This issue was also reported in 2446203-zen. While viewing https://wordpress.com/people/followers/ the Email Followers tab is searchable, while the Followers tab is not. I would expect to be able to search both/neither, as the current implementation seems inconsistent.
