Description
OsmAnd is unable to return results when searching for POI's that contain diacritics in their name if the diacritics are not included in the search term. This is not a problem in Nominatim.

Research direction
Reproduce the issue in OsmAnd-iOS by searching for a POI with diacritics both with and without the marks, using the examples in the screenshots. Trace the iOS search entry point to determine where the search term is matched against POI names; done means unaccented terms return the same relevant results as accented terms.
