When I see search results, I can't navigate by Up/Down keys

I'd like to press Down, Enter:

@groeneai, could you please implement this feature request?

@alexey-milovidov I will gift it to you with the new docs site if you can wait a few more weeks for launch date (aiming to cut-over by mid July) :)

@alexey-milovidov Root-caused it. The screenshot is the dedicated /search results page (src/theme/SearchPage/index.js), which renders results as a plain list with no keyboard handling, so Up/Down/Enter do nothing there. The Cmd+K search modal is a separate component and already has native arrow navigation.

The fix is small and self-contained on the current site: track an active result index on that page and add an onKeyDown handler for ArrowDown/ArrowUp (move the highlight, scroll into view) and Enter (open the highlighted result).

Blargian mentioned the new docs site (mid-July) will include this. Do you want the interim fix landed on the current site now, or wait for the new site? I can open the PR immediately if you prefer it now.

I can wait.
