Research direction

Start by reproducing the Search In Page action in Xreader 3.0.2 on Mint 20.2, then trace the menu action and the existing search bar behavior. Done means activating the option again closes or disables the search bar, with the toggle also available in the toolbar.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

 * Xreader version (xreader 3.0.2)
 * Distribution - (Mint 20.2)

Issue
There should be an easy way to toggle on/off the "Search In Page" mode, but the button is hidden in the menu bar and only opens the search bar with no way to remove it except to close/open the document.

Steps to reproduce
Locate the "Search In Page" option from the Menu Bar, and activate it. Clicking it again will not deactivate it. (Also, the toggle should be in the toolbar, not hidden in the menu bar).

Expected behaviour
Option can be toggled on/off (and ideally should be in the Toolbar)
