fix(mobile): use native toolbar search for licenses

[juliusmarminge]

The mobile open-source licenses screen used an inline search field and extra description/count text, unlike the other iOS lists.

Remove that copy and reuse the branch picker's native bottom search toolbar, including the older-iOS search fallback and list clearance. Android retains its inline search field. License filtering and detail navigation are unchanged.

Verified on an iPhone 17e simulator running iOS 26.5 with a freshly rebuilt development client and a disposable environment: search filters results, clear restores the list, keyboard dismissal preserves the query, and a filtered license opens and returns with the query intact. Mobile typecheck, targeted lint/format, and all 9 shared license tests pass. Also verified on iOS 18.6: the standard native search stays visible beneath the title, filters results, and Cancel clears the query and restores the list. Android was reviewed in code, not run in a simulator.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The licenses screen selects iOS toolbar or header search based on platform support. Non-iOS platforms render search in the list header. The screen removes the description and notice count and applies platform-specific bottom padding.

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Platform search and spacing apps/mobile/src/features/settings/SettingsOpenSourceLicensesRouteScreen.tsx	The screen enables the native iOS mail-style search toolbar when supported, retains header search as the iOS fallback, and renders list-header search on non-iOS platforms. Bottom padding varies by toolbar support, iOS layout, and Android safe-area spacing. The description and notice count are removed.

On supported iOS, users cannot clear filtered license results through the native search control, although they can still edit the query manually.

Reviewed CodeRabbit's docstring-coverage warning. No docstrings added: these existing screen components remain self-explanatory, and AGENTS.md asks us not to narrate implementation already clear from the code. The change adds no new public API or architectural constraint. The CodeRabbit check passed with no actionable findings; Macroscope approved the current head.

🟡 Minor · Add a clear control to the native license search.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Add a clear control to the native license search. The native helper creates a UISearchTextField with the default clearButtonMode of never. Its xmark is labeled Dismiss search keyboard and only calls resignFirstResponder. After a user enters text and taps it, query remains non-empty and the license list stays filtered. Keep the dismiss button keyboard-only, and enable a separate native clear control that sends the existing searchTextChangeId event with an empty value so this branch updates query through setQuery("").

Verified the updated iOS 18.6 fallback on the simulator: search is visible beneath the title on opening, entering react filters the list, and Cancel clears the query and restores the full list.

CodeRabbit's summary claim that the native control cannot clear filtered results is contradicted by the simulator verification. The iOS 26 recording embedded in the PR shows the native Clear text button restoring the unfiltered list; the native toolbar emits the cleared text through onSearchTextChange. On iOS 18, onChangeText handles native clear and onCancelButtonPress explicitly resets the query. No additional change is needed for that summary finding. The earlier response to the docstring warning still applies.
