Fixed: When devices went to sleep mode, the search filter was reset of the online library.

* Preserved search query across lifecycle changes to restore it when the fragment becomes visible again.
* Previously, when the device went to sleep, `viewLifecycleOwner` closed the search view due to lifecycle events, resetting the search.
* Now, the query is stored in `ViewModel` (which is lifecycle-aware) and restored when the online library screen is reopened.
* Search is reset only when the user explicitly clears it.
