I expect to be able to find all matches. Each category seems to be limited to max. 5 entries.
The sub-entries should be scrollabel, or maybe have a button "show all results".
Phone Model
Samsung S9e
Phone OS
Android 14
Audiobookshelf App Version
Android App - 0.11.0
Installation Source
Google Play Store
Additional Notes
How it is implemented now is very confusing, because at first it seems like the server is not recognizing / missing the other results when. However the search works fine and as expected in the web version.

### I have verified that the [bug is not already awaiting release](https://github.com/advplyr/audiobookshelf-app/issues?q=is%3Aissue%20label%3A%22awaiting%20release%22)
Yes
### What was the Problem?
The search is limited to 5 results; no indicator is present that some results are not shown.
### Steps to Reproduce the Issue
1. Open the search
2. Enter some keyword that should yield more than 5 books
3. Observe that the results are limited
I think the relevant line is this:

Dungeon Crawler Carl wont even show as an option when searching "Dungeon" on books or Series
but when you search Carl you get see a Authors section and Narrators section
