Allow user to write a custom value not in the list

[markusdr]

It would be useful to have an option that lets the users write and select their own values in the searchbox. In that case, the list would just provide auto-complete suggestions; the user can select one of them or, alternatively, type their own.

This would behave like the Google search box: As you type it provides suggestions but it doesn't limit you to the suggested values; you can still search for something else. And, when you have accepted an auto-complete suggestion you can still edit it further.

Is there an option for such a behavior in streamlit-searchbox?

This can be achieved by dynamically adding the user's search term to the list returned from the callback function.
