[Feature]: Option for find and replace text #282

Description

@GregHabiskis

Summary

Add a find and replace text option to the note editor.

Description

Currently there is no built-in find and replace functionality within the note editor. Users have to rely on their devices system-wide search or manually scan through notes to locate and replace text.

Suggested Behavior

  • Add a Find & Replace option to the note editor toolbar or menu.
  • Support:
    • Find: Highlight all occurrences of a search term.
    • Replace: Replace a single occurrence or all occurrences at once.
    • Case-sensitive toggle.
    • Regex toggle (optional but nice to have).
  • Keyboard shortcut: Ctrl+F / Cmd+F for find, Ctrl+H / Cmd+Shift+H for replace.

Motivation

This would significantly improve the editing experience, especially for longer notes or when managing lists of items (e.g., passwords, journal entries, tasks).
