When searching for buildings, also filter by products

There's a cornerstone which allows you to pick any discovered building and add it to your run. The menu for selecting that building includes a search bar. A tiny QoL enhancement would allow filtering by what each building can produce, not just the building name in that search bar to quickly compare buildings which produce "Simple Tools" (for example) and then decide which of those to pick.

There may be other menus where this is applicable. Filtering by ingredients (not just products) may also be relevant in other menus.

After a long absence I came back and this was the first thing I wanted. I needed a flour building and got offered the smuggler but typing flour into it told me nothing. I went to recipes to find out all the buildings that could produce flour, but in the recipes tab you can't magnify the building to find out what else it can produce so I had to then go back and manually search each building in the smuggler's list.

I would very much like to see the smuggler respond to ingredients, and if I go to the recipes list I should probably be able to zoom in on the building details as well.

Definitely would be a really nice general QoL upgrade. Would like to see this on all menus for buildings. Just add a tiny filter button in the corner and then it pops up all the resources. It would be really nice.

There are plenty of ways to design and implement this. Did not consider making extra UI for it and it would be cool. To be honest I'd be happy even with typing "brick" in that search bar and seeing the following results: Crude Workstation, Furnace, Brickyard, Brick Oven, Kiln, Workshop. In that list, Brick Oven doesn't produce bricks, it just matches the name. And I'd be ok with it :).
