[Feature Request] Add support for opening the app directly with search, via search.f-droid.org #1365

Description

Before you submit

  • I have searched the issue tracker for open and closed issues that are similar to the feature request I want to file, without success.
  • I'm not requesting app support for a specific repo — that's up to repo maintainers
  • I understand this might not get built (Droid-ify is maintained by a single person)

What's the problem?

As shown in the video, searching an app requires a few extra clicks. The intended behaviour would be the play store action.

What would help?

It would help if the droid-ify supported the search.f-droid.org url, as it would open the word directly in the in-app search field.

Alternatives?

The alternative is to search on the official website, then to click on the app listing, and that would open the app's page in Droid-ify.

Anything else?

It seems that the official f-droid search query is the ?q= one, so we would "only" need to support this term. Furthermore, it would mean that we could use the Droid-ify search implementation instead of f-droid's one. It is a small change but a nice to have feature. Thanks in advance, for the amazing app!
