Current Behavior

https://crates.io/search?q=oauth does not show the oauth2 crate.

Expected Behavior

https://crates.io/search?q=oauth should show the oauth2 crate.

Steps To Reproduce

Visit https://crates.io/search?q=oauth

Environment

Anything else?

Background: while implementing an oauth flow for CLI login earlier this week, I searched "oauth" on crates.io, which turns up effectively no useful results, didn't second-guess the list, and went ahead and hand-rolled my own client implementation. Fast forward a few days, and I realize that there is an oauth2 crate, but it wasn't in the search results.

(I recognize that this is wading into the "crates.io should show highly relevant crates" problem territory of tags/semantic relevance, but this felt like a very concrete example where, as a user of crates.io, I did work that I should not have done as a result of trusting the crates.io search result.)
