docs(transcription): explain why SEARCH_RESULT_LIMIT lives in the shared module

Round-4 polish from Felix (#1): SEARCH_RESULT_LIMIT only has one consumer
today (PersonMentionEditor), so it risked masquerading as shared. Add a
one-line rationale that the symmetry with MAX_QUERY_LENGTH and
SEARCH_DEBOUNCE_MS — keeping all @mention knobs in one file — is the
intentional motivation, not a missed inlining.
