Add integration test for creator list response when search term has no matches

[Chucks1093]

Summary
A search term that matches no creators should return a valid empty response with accurate pagination metadata. An integration test for this path confirms the response is well-formed and does not return an error or a null items field.

Scope

• add an integration test that sends a search term guaranteed to match no creators
• assert the response is valid with an empty items array
• assert pagination metadata reflects zero total matches

Acceptance Criteria

• a no-match search returns a valid response with an empty items array
• pagination metadata shows zero total matches
• the response shape is identical to a normal empty list response
