This PR isn't ready for merging, but I wanted to get some feedback and ideas from people.
This PR adds to main features:
First, it attempts to detect when the current window has a split layout and in that case it will open the files in the "other split" as opposed to in the same one as the find results. This smooths out my workflow quite a bit because it lets me keep the find results still front and center to jump to the next result if needed.
Second, it adds support for using a transient window as a preview when there are multiple splits in the layout. So for example if you have your window split in two with one view on the left and one on the right, and you do a search with your results shown in the left view, then as you step through the results with n,p keys, you will see a preview of the results in the pane on the right. The plugin will highlight the match in the preview window to make it easier to see in full context.
Assuming other people think this is useful, there are still some places that need smoothed out in the code. I have added questions about them in the PR below.
