Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Some mangas do not appear in myanimelist, but are usually found in www.mangaupdates.com.
First, I'd like to request for the inclusion of searches using their API, and second, since it can also search for novels, to also include a new type or subType of media that represents them.

Describe the solution you'd like
Include the mangaupdates API in the search for comics (https://api.mangaupdates.com/), and to have a new type/subType that represents the novels obtained from that API.

Additional context
A search request example:

POST https://api.mangaupdates.com/v1/series/search
{"search": "demon noble girl"}

Research direction

Start by reading the existing search integrations and media type definitions, then inspect the Mangaupdates API documentation and the POST /v1/series/search example in the issue. Done means comic searches can query Mangaupdates and novels returned by that API have a distinct type or subtype.
