Description

Allow users to provide a list of options to populate as a user types that drops down below the input.

Things like search on various pages could benefit from this.

Can make it generic so it works with any page.

BONUS POINTS

If we can figure out if search.gov provides an API to return the listed results for this list and add this into the Search component

Start by locating the input box and Search component in this React component library. Define the generic option-list behavior and verify that suggestions appear as the user types; treat the possible search.gov API integration as a separate scope decision because no API or test entry point is identified.
