v0.1.4: Revert to folder scope default, add helpful hint for empty results

- Default search scope back to current folder (not everywhere)
- Show "Nothing here. Press / to search everywhere." when folder has no sessions
- Show "No results. Press / to search everywhere." when query has no matches
- Use full-width layout when no results for better hint display
