Description

Expected behavior

Either the list should also be cleared, or the search input should not be cleared.

Actual behavior

The search input is cleared, but the results list is not cleared.

Steps to reproduce the behavior
  1. Start the site creation flow
  2. Pick a topic and theme (or skip) to get to the domain search screen
  3. Type a keyword to search for a domain (expect results to be displayed below)
  4. Press back to go back to the theme selection screen
  5. Choose a theme (or skip) to go back to the domain screen
  6. Observe that the results are still displayed, but the search input is empty
Tested on Pixel 3a, Android 12, JPAndroid trunk

Research direction

Start by tracing the site creation flow from the domain search screen through the theme selection screen, reproducing the back-navigation sequence described in the issue. Done means returning to the domain screen either clears the results list along with the empty search input or preserves the search input so it matches the displayed results.
