Omim: Improvments of "Add new place" screen: Icons & filter

[rugk]

When adding new objects there is a list of objects where you can choose the one you like to add.
I would like it if

1. this list could be searchable, so you can easily filter out the thing you want to add instead of scrolling through this long list.
2. there would be icons (possibly the icons from the map), so you can more easily see what each entry is about.

Have been editing and love that I can do this now so easily. Here's what I would suggest to make it more simpler:

• Press and hold a point on the map to add a POI. This is much faster than going through a menu and recentering the map.
• Ability to add a note. There were so many missing road names that I wanted to desperately add, or observations I wanted to check later on imagery. https://github.com/mapsme/omim/issues/2855
• Tag list shows recently used tags. Navigating such a huge list presently is a bit of a pain, especially if i'm just adding a repeated feature like bus stops while moving in the taxi.

Thank you so much!

• "Add POI" button in the long-tapped location is planned for the next update.
• "Report a problem" button is actually send a note to the OSM.
• It's done in a basic way on iOS, will do it on Android too.
