bug#35551: guix search

[znavko]

Hello!

$ guix search video
shows: vidstab, youtube-viewer, ffmpegthumbnailer, xf86-video-mach64...
I'd better prefer this sorting:
vlc, mpv, gnome-mpv, blender, avidemux, kdenlive...

To do so need to sort by popularity, using f.e. fsf site statistics.
There is no other mathematics methods like 'if this package provides ssh 
command in path'.
The other way is to add own 'Relevance' field and to fill it manually or using 
some statistic reasons.
