Description

### Description

The global search component has introduced a powerful way to navigate team-scoped apps, instances, and devices entirely through the keyboard. This feature not only streamlines navigation but also lays the groundwork for more advanced functionality.

Here are a couple of ideas for improving this component:
- add a new results section above the applications results called loosely 'navigation results'
- include other teams that match the search query and display it as a 'switch to xxx team' navigation result and change to that team when acted upon the result
- include frontend routes (routes that should be included in the results will be demarcated by a meta attribute) and display them as a 'go to xxx page' (in the context of the current team)
- we could include the main navigation pages as a starting point and extended it to include account and admin pages (if applicable to the current user)
