Add search on Clipboard Manager

[gsarig]

Description of the new feature / enhancement

Add search/find-as-you-type functionality on the Clipboard Manager entries.

Scenario when this would be used?

When you want to quickly find a specific entry that you recently copied.

Supporting information

I use PhraseExpress which has similar functionality, and I find it very convenient that instead of scrolling through my snippets, I can just start typing to find it.

The most ideal thing would be if MS adopts this in the actual Clipboard themselfs.

Seems like this issue would be a duplicate of #671. Thoughts? /needinfo

@TheJoeFin There could be an overlap, though the scope of the other ticket seems to broad to me (and probably, for that, harder and more time-consuming to implement).

My suggestion was something much simpler: If the clipboard manager is on focus, and you start typing, it will start filtering the results based on what you typed. Phrase Express has something similar. This is their popup in its initial state:

And as soon as you start typing something, it will trigger the search:

On that note, another handy feature would be an option to order the snippets based on when they have been used. For example, if I use the 5th snippet in my list, the next time I trigger the Clipboard Manager popup it should have this snippet moved to the top of the list (but I guess that's another feature).

It wouldn't be possible to add filtering to the Windows clipboard manager without totally rewriting and taking over the entire experience. I think I'm going to close this issue as a duplicate of the larger enhanced clipboard issue.
Also, the searchable list of snippets is this issue #1758. I wanted this feature so much that I built it into Text Grab:
