Summary

This PR restores the organization search submission layout and adjusts filter visibility across search transitions.

• Docks the search field immediately when a nonempty URL-backed query is submitted.
• Initializes result-scroll edge tracking when the results view mounts.
• Delays filters until complete or useful partial results exist, while retaining them during refinements and retries.
• Extends focused tests for submission, filter persistence, retries, partial responses, empty results, and scroll fades.
