fix(search): Handle invalid JSON in localStorage for search platforms

[sentry]

DESCRIBE YOUR PR

Tell us what you're changing and why. If your PR resolves an issue, please link it so it closes automatically.

This PR addresses an unhandled SyntaxError that occurred when the localStorage entry for search platforms (sentry-docs-search-platforms) contained invalid JSON. Previously, the JSON.parse call on line 102 of src/components/search/index.tsx would throw an error if the stored value was not valid JSON (e.g., "zzzz"), leading to a component crash.

The fix involves wrapping the JSON.parse call in a try/catch block. If a SyntaxError occurs, the invalid localStorage entry is removed, preventing the crash and allowing the component to function correctly with default values. This approach aligns with how similar JSON.parse operations are handled in other components like src/components/banner/index.tsx.
