Unlimited Search windows can be created, potentially causing performance issues or Editor crash

Unity: Search

6.0.X

2022.3.X

It is up to the user to manage the number of windows. We do not want to enforce any of this. No other Windows within unity has such a limitation.

Steps to reproduce:

Actual results: Editor Crashes

Expected results: The Editor should limit the number of concurrent Search windows (e.g., one global Search window, or a reasonable maximum)

Reproducible with versions: 2022.3.66f1, 6000.0.56f1, 6000.1.16f1, 6000.2.2f1, 6000.3.0a6

Not reproducible with versions: 2021.3.55f1 (can not create unlimited search windows)

Tested on (OS): Windows 11
