[Feature Request] Improve search on website to make games with special characters searchable

[natanox]

Right now games like Pokemon can't be properly looked up via website due to the ´ above e, which can't be easily written by everyone everywhere on localized keyboards.
Likewise if the game got some special characters in-between like : or - it will often prevent users to find the game if they don't write it exactly the right way.

The client does not seem to have this issue.

I should note that the client cheats; it does the search in Python code, not with a database query. We seem to be getting away with that for a personal library, but the Lutris database may be too big for this.

I do not have the definitive answer to this but I'll leave these links here to avoid slipping to dark territories

Ok, sorry, even those are too dark.
Let's go with this: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.1/ref/contrib/postgres/search/
