 - Added `search()`, `searchWithFilter()`, and `clearResults()` to `StreamMessageSearchListController`, `StreamUserListController`, and `StreamMemberListController`. `search()`/`searchWithFilter()` debounce reloads by the search-text length (a filter with no search text reloads immediately) and drop superseded results; `clearResults()` cancels any pending search and clears the results.
