💡 What: Unified List Filtering and Search Feedback

This PR introduces a centralized and more accessible filtering experience for all list views (Tools, Consumables, Workers).

🎯 Why: The User Problem

Previously, search and dropdown filters were independent and often redundant across different templates. Users lacked clear feedback when no results were found, and accessibility was limited for screen reader users.

✨ Result:

  • Search Shortcut: Users can now press / to quickly jump to the search box.
  • Improved Feedback: A visible "No results" message appears when filtering returns nothing.
  • Accessibility: Screen readers now announce the number of results found thanks to a new `aria-live` region.
  • Maintainability: Reduced code duplication by moving filtering logic to the base template.

♿ Accessibility Improvements:

  • Added `aria-live="polite"` to announce result counts.
  • Ensured the `/` shortcut doesn't interfere with existing text inputs.
  • Used semantic `sr-only` labels.
