Description of the changes in your PR

• Update Google Material library 1.6.1 -> 1.9.0 (changelog) (as always, release APK bloats by 193 KB, lol)

Things to notice in this update for the rewrite:

• New Material Search Bar + Search View component: we could probably replace our custom search bar with this. Could save hundreds of lines of code, potentially.
  • Has basically the same features, like the suggestion list and the menu items (like the 'x' for clearing/closing and the hamburger where the filters can be put).
  • I couldn't find anything regarding displaying a "history" for searching, but I don't think this'll be a problem because I think we could just replace the suggestion list dynamically for when the search box is empty. Probably.
  • ✨M a t e r i a l 3✨

There was nothing else of note in the changelogs. (There's also a cool new Carousel component in 1.9.0, but we don't need that for anything.)

APK testing

The APK can be found by going to the "Checks" tab below the title. On the left pane, click on "CI", scroll down to "artifacts" and click "app" to download the zip file which contains the debug APK of this PR. You can find more info and a video demonstration on this wiki page.
