Fix Search messages in chat window + adpat fontsize to changes upstream

This pull request is a minimal correction to fix searching messages in the Chat Window. It is a secondary feature but still very usefull for me. It also includes a small adaptation to Fontsize to match the changes that happened in Whatsapp web this Tuesday in that regard. As you can see the modifications in the code are quite short and limited so I hope it should not have any side-effect.

It should now offer 100% of the functionalities of Whatsapp web, and everything should display correctly.

The only drawback being that it is still a bit slughish, I hope it will improve a bit when upgrading to Qt6 or with other upcoming improvements in the OS, or even optimisations in the code of Whatsapp web itself coming from meta.

This time I hope I will not work on this project, until Qt6 release and that Meta will not release changes that break the thing until then (or if they do at least let it be for enabling calls in whatsapp web 😅) . (I might think one day, about ways for the app to be more resilient and self-adaptative to upstream changes, but not now)
