[Feature]: Show relative path tooltip for Cloud search results #263

Description

@DenizAltunkapan

Problem

Cloud search results can show multiple files with similar or hash-like names. The list currently makes it hard to understand where a search result is located without opening or interacting with it further.

Example scenario:

  • A user searches inside Cloud.
  • Several matching files have similar names.
  • The user wants to know which folder each result belongs to before opening, editing, or downloading it.

Proposed solution

Show the result location when the user hovers over a search result row or filename. The tooltip should display the relative parent path of the result, using the existing search result path data if available.

This should be possible as a frontend-only change if the current search response already includes the full path for each result. If the backend does not provide enough path information in some cases, the issue should document the missing field before adding backend work.

Acceptance criteria

  • Search result rows or filenames expose a hover tooltip with the relative parent path.
  • The tooltip uses existing SearchResultDto.path data where available.
  • Root-level results display a clear root location, for example /.
  • The tooltip works for both file and folder search results if both are shown.
  • The UI remains usable for long paths, for example by truncating visually while preserving the full tooltip text.
  • No backend changes are introduced unless the current search response lacks the required path data.
