✨ Gather ESEARCH response to #search/#uid_search

If the server returns both `ESEARCH` and `SEARCH`, both are cleared from
the responses hash, but only the `ESEARCH` is returned.

When the server doesn't send any search responses:  If return options
are passed, return an empty ESearchResult.  It will have the appropriate
`tag` and `uid` values, but no `data`.  Otherwise return an empty
`SearchResult` (changed from empty array).
