Move search, 'deep research' and 'create image' to sidebar

[EricZet]

a better placement for search, ‘deep research’ and ‘create image’ would be in the sidebar/side panel or make it so that you can disable the tooltips that pops up and covers the text field when you (accidently) hover over those buttons

TamperMonkey script that will simply hide the buttons.

The only one that really matters is deep research, so you can temporarily disable the script for your 10 or so per month. Others, you basically talk to the AI and get the same thing for canvas, search, and image creation.
