[feat] client/simple: move cursor to end of search input on mobile
On mobile devices, when the search input is focused, move the cursor to the end of the existing text. This improves the user experience by making it easier to edit or append to the current query without manually moving the cursor first. Closes: https://github.com/searxng/searxng/issues/5112
