💡 What:
Changed the Coverage page search input from type="text" to type="search".
Added an explicit aria-label attribute to the search input.

🎯 Why:
Using type="search" provides browser-native UX enhancements, such as a built-in clear button ("x") allowing users to easily clear their search queries, and optimized search keyboard layouts on mobile devices.
The input was missing a dedicated <label>, so screen readers were forced to rely on the placeholder attribute for context. Adding aria-label="Search by AC ID or title..." explicitly defines the input's purpose for assistive technologies.

📸 Before/After:
See the generated verification screenshot. A clear "x" icon now appears natively on the right side of the input box when text is entered.

♿ Accessibility:
Improved screen reader experience by adding an explicit aria-label to an otherwise unlabeled search box.


PR created automatically by Jules for task 13425625443315144451 started by @EffortlessSteven

Changed the Coverage page search input from `type="text"` to `type="search"`.
This automatically provides browser-native UI features, like a clear button ('x')
for quickly resetting the search on desktop, and specialized search keyboard
layouts on mobile devices.

Added an `aria-label` to ensure the input is accessible to screen readers,
as it relies on a placeholder rather than a visible label element.

Applied symmetrically to `crates/app-http` and `crates/http-platform`.
