Search hashes on main window #33

I tried copying a hash then searching it on the main window and was surprised that it didn't work. It only searches the file names there, and to search hashes you have to use the "Compare" screen. While there may still be a use for that screen, it often wouldn't be necessary to have to switch to it, not to mention it would make things more intuitive, to simply allow searching the hashes as well as filenames in the main window, filtering the results accordingly.

Not only would this make it more streamlined and easier to use, rather than having to open various different windows to accomplish something that can easily be done in the main window, but the other windows have more limited functionality, being unable to delete the files in the duplicates window and unable to do anything in the comparison one. The other windows also require more clicks, e.g. having to paste the checksum then hit the compare button, whereas the main window filters as you type. If everything was done in the main window, it would be a smoother, faster experience and would allow more control, i.e. allowing the deletion of files, etc.
