Improve GlListbox search input

Olena Horal-Koretska requested to merge 1874-borderless-searchbox into main

What does this MR do?

It creates a new component for the GlListbox search input according to the new designs and replaces the currently used GlSearchBoxByType with it. We could have used GlSearchBoxByType but it requires a lot of overwriting of the styles as well as updating the component to allow adjusting different search icon sizes. The new one is much cleaner and is specifically adjusted for the GlListbox and can be used later for other dropdowns.
