Typing entry into 'Find / Replace All' during autosave will begin search prematurely

Reproduction Steps

Type anything into the ‘Find All / Replace All’ search bar (brought up with CTRL+Shift+F) and wait for an autosave to begin within studio.



Expected Behavior

Studio should not begin a search all function when autosave is complete, and I should be able to continue typing.

Actual Behavior

When the autosave completes, it will prematurely begin to search through all scripts for whatever you have typed in so far.

While this is a small issue, in places with many many scripts & lines of code, in rare circumstances it can lag or crash studio (happened to me just once) - this is because I began typing something to search all, but I only typed one letter (L or something) and then it began to compile ALL SCRIPTS that had the letter L in it, which killed studio due to finding thousands of results lol
