[Phone][Papercut] Contact search should clear aftyer dial/send message

When you go to the “People” tab in the phone UI and search for someone after you call them/send them a message when you again go to the People tab the search will still be active.

IMHO that search should reset in 99% of the use cases and therefore that should probably be the default behaviour, I do see that there is a use case where maybe you searched a family/company name or similar and want to one by one call all of them but I think for most people most of the time this is not what they are doing.

In general I agree, yet I can see use cases when it maybe should not clear, ie.: when the call was not succesful, and the contact has more than one phone number assigned.

The contact will still be easily and quickly accessible from your call history, in the “people” tab it is not showing the contact but the last search will still be active/typed.
