The goal of this PR is to allow users to search for token addresses using their token symbol. For example, if a user wanted to look up "USDC" then they could simply search for USDC instead of searching for EPjFWdd5AufqSSqeM2qN1xzybapC8G4wEGGkZwyTDt1v Here, our search functionality uses the Jupiter Token API to fetch common SPL token symbols and their respective addresses. We then check the user's query against this list of tokens, and direct them to the proper token address page on Xray
This would allow users to check if an address is genuine and not a scam address. This also partly addresses #175 by allowing users to search by token names
