Description

Maybe i am overseeing something... but i am not finding any option to delete an entry from within a search.

**Describe the solution you'd like**
I would like to see a delete option similar in the three-dot action menu of the entry detail page next or near the edit button. It obviously needs to ask for confirmation.

If the edit button is to close to the delete button, i would consider moving the edit button into a FAB for entry detail pages. or next to the menu on the menu bar.

**Describe alternatives you've considered**
I considered a placement in the entry editor. Other Editing views like the Google Contacts app used to have implemented it the same way. This adds another layer of accidental deletion protection. I would like to see it in the entry actions menu.

**Additional context**
The main reason why having the deletion only in the folder / tree view is, that coming from a search (large keepass file without knowledge of folder location for entries) there is no way of deleting an entry if i am correct.

Research direction

Start by tracing the entry detail and edit page action menus, then follow the search result flow to confirm how a selected entry is opened. The work is done when an entry opened from search can be deleted from its actions menu or nearby control, with a confirmation step before deletion.
