uses `norm` to do fzf-compatible matches when rendering history items in the search panel to highlight the matching ranges of the item this helps see _why_ certain history items have come up note that this will never be 100% perfect as we search on a sqlite query but it should be good enough in most cases

fixes #503
highlight the matching parts of commands in the search window fzf style
sometimes it takes a while to be able to see why a command has shown up, this highlighting helps
it uses https://github.com/nomad/norm for fzf style matching which supports all the same prefixes we do except regex matches (which just won't highlight)
NOTE: PR is unfinished (need tests, probably a better way of getting the search input and engine into the renderer), but i wanted to make sure people would want this feature first
also, the highlighting is kind of inversed for the selected row, not sure if there's a better way we can do this though
edit: updated the highlighting to change the color on the selected row instead of unbolding:
