Allow Image History to Search through Entire History

[Cyph3r]

Feature Idea

Use Case: I often want to search my entire history for a prompt keyword (or whatever) to find some old generation that I wish to "Reuse parameters" from. That generation could be anywhere in the history and specifying an arbitrary look back number of images just adds extra steps. (I do understand that it is defaulted to 1000 to avoid constantly long searches, but there are times where it's helpful).

Generate Tab -> Image History sub tab (at bottom):

The number of previously generated images that can be searched currently is defined by the value on the far right in the image above. I believe it defaults to 1000 and that's a setting.

Feature Request: Allow ability to change this value to "All" as in all history.

Suggestion:

Some different ideas for implementation:

1. Add a slider similar to the "Depth" slider with either -1 or "All" as an option, as well as several options, i.e. 1000, 10000, etc.
2. Add a checkbox to the right for "All" [history], which grays out the number next to it.

Perhaps there should be a tooltip that specifies queries with ALL could take a long time.

The result should be that all image history is searched by the specified filter.

The max visible is a User Setting yes, you can set that crazy high as the current way to be able to backsearch much older files. The system is performant enough that on a decent PC you can happily set that to 5000 or whatever and not see any impact. (it doesn't actually try to render all 5000 images, it just scans that many in and has them ready for search and etc, they only render in once they'd be logically within the viewport, ie you can scroll to start rendering them, and if you scroll through 5000 images it'll eventually start to chug while you're going cause that's too many render, but as long as you don't try to do that you'll be good)
