Chrome Omnibox History Hider Extension

Chrome extension designed to prevent search history being forcefully displayed in the omnibox since the Chrome update in 2020. Absolutely infuriating feature that Google provide no means to disable. That's where this extension comes in.

Search history itself is unaffected and still accessible via the \"usual\" methods. This extension simply prevents previous searches being displayed in the omnibox.
