Step 3 in Steps to reproduce

SUMMARY

When searching for an app that has diacritics (accents) in its name, the KDE
plasma search should ignore them.
Let's take Korganizer as an example, its name is (منظّمك), notice the (ّ)
diacritic above the letter (ظ).
Normally, a user would search using just letters without including diacritics,
so if I try typing (منظمك) I won't get results.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set locale to ar_EG for example
2. Install Korganizer
3. Open the application launcher and type منظ
4. Notice the Korganizer appearance.
5. Now add the next letter م
6. Notice it disappears despite the correct spelling

OBSERVED RESULT
KDE app launcher search can't distinguish between letters and diacritics.

EXPECTED RESULT
You should get the search results regardless of the diacritics.
