Added

• fix: allow tag names with colons in search by @SkeleyM in #765

#784 by @CyanVoxel

• Reset tag search box and focus each time a tag search panel is opened
• Include tag parents in tag search results (v9.4 parity)
• Lowercase tag names now get properly sorted with uppercase ones
• Don't include tag display names in "closeness" factor when searching
• Escape "&" characters inside tag names so Qt doesn't treat them as mnemonics
• Set minimum tag width
• Fix "Add Tags" panel missing its window title when accessing from the keyboard shortcut

Changed

#784 by @CyanVoxel

• The "use for disambiguation" button has been moved to the right-hand side of parent tags in order to prevent accidental clicks involving the left-hand "remove tag" button
• Add "Create & Add" button to the bottom of all non-whitespace searches, even if they return some tags
• The awkward "+" button next to tags in the "Add Tags" panel has been removed in favor of clicking on tags themselves
• Improved visual feedback for highlighting, keyboard focusing, and clicking tags
• The clickable area of the "-" button on tags has been increased and has visual feedback when you hover and click it
• You can now tab into the tag search list and add tags with a spacebar press (previously possible but very janky)
• In tag search panels, pressing the Esc key will return your focus to the search bar and highlight your previous query. If the search box is already highlighted, pressing Esc will close the modal
• In modals such as the "Add Tag" and "Edit Tag" panels, pressing Esc will cancel the operation and close the modal
