fix(ui): object type field labels not displaying in search filter (#11366)

This PR ensures that when `titleField.label` is provided as an object,
it is correctly translated and displayed in the search filter's
placeholder.

Previously, the implementation only supported string values, which could
lead to issues with object type labels. With these changes, object type
labels will now properly show as intended in the search filter.

Fixes #11348
