feat(desktop): add Cmd+F shortcut to focus search in Tasks view

[saddlepaddle]

Summary

• Adds FOCUS_TASK_SEARCH hotkey (Cmd+F / Ctrl+Shift+F) that focuses and selects the search input on the Tasks page
• Pressing Escape while focused clears the search query and blurs the input
• No conflict with FIND_IN_TERMINAL (also meta+f) since the terminal hotkey is gated by enabled: isFocused and the two views are on separate routes

Test plan

• Navigate to Tasks page → press Cmd+F → search input focuses with text selected
• Press Escape → search clears and input blurs
• Navigate to a Workspace → press Cmd+F → terminal search opens (existing behavior preserved)

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

A global hotkey binding (meta+f) was added to focus and select the task search input field. The feature is implemented by registering a new hotkey definition in the shared hotkeys configuration and attaching programmatic focus control to the search input component with an Escape key handler to clear the query.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
Hotkey Registration apps/desktop/src/shared/hotkeys.ts	Added new hotkey definition FOCUS_TASK_SEARCH mapped to meta+f with workspace category and description.
TasksTopBar Component apps/desktop/src/renderer/routes/_authenticated/_dashboard/tasks/components/TasksView/components/TasksTopBar/TasksTopBar.tsx	Added useRef and useAppHotkey imports, created searchInputRef to control input focus, attached global hotkey binding that focuses/selects the search input, and added onKeyDown handler to clear query and blur on Escape key.

Poem

🐰 A whispered meta-f in the air
Task search blooms with focused care
One hop away, the queries wait
Swift as carrots on a plate!
Escape to clear, then search once more 🔍
