Feature request: Searching remote (async) sources

[ohxh]

This project looks very high quality and I'm interested in using it in an app I'm building. However, I want to do some search on the backend too in some actions (think Search Docs > [query goes here]. Ideally, I could provide my own function search: (x: query) => Promise<Action[]> or whatever. Is this a direction you want to take this project / a contribution you'd be interested in?

Possible related to #255 too

Hey @ohxh! 100% would benefit from first class support for async loading of actions. As a little hack for now you can work with useRegisterActions to in a way to replicate the search -> action experience:

const [search, setSearch] = React.useState("");

const actions = React.useMemo(() => {
  const results = await getResults(search);
  return results.map(r => createAction(...));
}, [search]);

useRegisterActions(actions, [actions])

I used useRegisterActions() and useState() to take the search query, fetch results from a RESTful API and render results on the fly.
