Description

### Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Having more search results would be easy to implement, but it exposes another flaw: the eomji reaction system is not well suited for lists greater than for ex, 2

Related: #758

### What is your ideal solution to the problem?

. Thus, I propose 2 changes: A configurable number of search results, and a purely text based selection system. Everything is _already_ based around typing, why not make that the exlclusive option for track selection.

### How would this feature be used?

People would be able to view more search results.
