Response behavior

- A search with no matches returns an empty `channels` list, not an error. - `followers` is the follower count; `slug` is what `kick-channel` takes. - An empty `query`, an over-long `query` or a `limit` outside 1 to 100 returns `400` before Kick is called. Example response (long values and lists shortened): ```json { "code": 200, "msg": "OK", "data": { "query": "xqc", "channels": [ { "id": 668, "slug": "xqc", "username": "xQc", "followers": 1357621, "live": false, "verified": true, "profile_picture": "https://files.kick.com/images/user/676/profile_image/conversion/931b4e8f-5445-427c-bd82-b473530390cc-medium.we…", "url": "https://kick.com/xqc" }, { "id": 66401232, "slug": "xqcow-waiting-room-x", "username": "xQcOW_waiting_room_X", "followers": 653, "live": true, "verified": false, "profile_picture": "https://files.kick.com/images/user/67553903/profile_image/conversion/752135e0-8198-4d61-aab5-0e8c7629b3f6-medi…", "url": "https://kick.com/xqcow-waiting-room-x" } ] } } ```
