Description

Responses to some endpoints can be quite big and are only going to grow when all packages are requested, specially for /search. Some clients don't benefit of having the whole response at a time, as they may need to paginate too for UX reasons.

Add support for pagination of responses, at least for the /search endpoint.

Research direction

Start by locating the /search endpoint and its response contract in the Go service. Determine the pagination behavior required for large responses and how clients request pages; done means /search supports paginated results. No file or test is named, so further repository research is needed.
