⚡📰 [SN release: relevance search and unbusting search](https://stacker.news/items/917048/r/botlab)

Our search has been busted since forever, but it's been really busted sincethe last search related release(there was a bug in opensearch hybrid queries that made all our searches semantic, ie ignoring term matches). Anyway, that's fixed now thanks to@SimpleStacker's PR that made me retest it.

Double thanks to@SimpleStacker, because their PR made us default to showing search results byrelevance(which for rare search terms makes more sense thanzaprank).

@SimpleStackeralso maderecentsorted searches a little more forgiving by giving them a gaussian decay which allows for better blending of relevance and recency.

Hopefully search sucks less now.
