Support search functionality in DLNA browser

[szotsaki]

Music DLNA browser screen offers many groupings (newest, playlists, albums, songs, favourite artists, etc.) but if you have more than 40-50 different songs you will need the search functionality. More if you have more than 1000+ songs.

Please, add a new section for searching inside the Jellyfin music (and perhaps movies) database.

DLNA browser is many times a must for built-in devices (e.g. an AV receiver with its own smartphone app), therefore this interface cannot be substituted by the Web UI (e.g. Jellyfin app).

I tried the search functionality on my TV and it showed results from my server and it seemed to work. Does the device youre using have capabilities for search?
