Utility script to quick search and open offline archwiki pages

Hey! I recently discovered the `arch-wiki-docs` package which provides a dump of html pages from the wiki for viewing offline. It doesn't have search functionality though, so I built a little python script to search the pages by title and open them in the browser. It's pretty simple - finds all the html files in the wiki, launches rofi so you can search, and then launches the default browser with the selected page. Thought I'd shared it here in case it would be of help/interest to anyone.

Feedback welcome!

There is arch-wiki-lite which provides wiki-search-html and wiki-search
