Description

Its not possible to search values in 90020000 for example on the memory viewer and its impossible to search into it via cheat search.
You are limited to the standard 0x00000000 (0x80000000 in memory viewer) as the only searchable part.

Though adding this support in cheat search would make it even harder to hit under 1024 results to make them visible.
(that harsh 1024 visibility cap limitation should be removed in favor of being able to change the results limit to a less cramped amount)
One option would be to allow switching search modes to access the other memory ranges which hide stuff like character size mods that are nearly impossible to find unless doing a breakpoint on a proper assembly location that just so happens to write into it.
Then even after that,you would be limited to custom ASM in order to write to it as cheats and also run into pointer requirement issues which makes the ASM creation harder.

Also please don't leave this out of the Dolphin-wx executable (like real-time Gecko code editing was >:( ) if any of it gets added.
I am stubborn so I prefer it over the qt version.

Seems reasonable. But just a heads up. AFAIK nobody is interested in touching Wx anymore. If you need the feature there, you'll very likely need to backport it yourself.
