Claude 003e6ebe15 Add prefetch + instant-local/debounced-remote search to combobox
Introduce a general 'prefetch' option (rows to load on first open, default 0 =
unchanged) carried as data-prefetch. Rework the JS search so a search_url widget
filters its loaded window instantly on every keystroke while issuing a debounced
server request for the rest, with an AbortController so a slower earlier response
can never overwrite a newer one. No-results stays hidden until the server
response decides it, avoiding a flash over an incomplete window. On first focus a
prefetch-enabled widget seeds its window immediately. Rename single-letter locals
to full words while reworking these functions.

"""Search field + dropdown select component (pure Python, domain-agnostic).
Pairs a search box with a dropdown of options. Supports single/multi select;
in multi-select, chosen items render as removable ``Pill``s, each backed by a
hidden ``<input>`` so an existing ``ModelMultipleChoiceField`` keeps validating.
This module imports only from ``common.components`` — it has no Django-forms or
``games`` knowledge. Styling is inline Tailwind utilities; behavioural hooks are
``data-*`` attributes wired up by ``games/static/js/search_select.js``.
Option sourcing follows two axes. *Population*: options are either rendered
inline up front (``options=``, no ``search_url``) or fetched from ``search_url``.
*Completeness*: without a ``search_url`` the inline set is the whole dataset and
filtering is purely client-side; with a ``search_url`` the loaded rows are a
window, so the JS filters the loaded rows instantly on each keystroke while
issuing a debounced server request for the rest. ``prefetch`` (rows to load on
first open, ``0`` = none) seeds that window so the panel is populated before the
user types.
