Search Regex Issue on Special Characters

[DarkcoderSe]

Hi! 👋

Firstly, thanks for your work on this project! 🙂

The search was not working properly, it was giving error when search special characters, so I fixed it and here's the solution

Here is the diff that solved my problem:

diff --git a/node_modules/react-native-input-select/src/index.tsx b/node_modules/react-native-input-select/src/index.tsx

+  };
   const onSearch = (value: string) => {
     setSearchValue(value);
 
-    let searchText = value.toString().toLocaleLowerCase().trim();

     const regexFilter = new RegExp(searchText, 'i');
