[Feature Request] Improve homepage search result

[sparklingwter]

Overview

Right now, the search bar result shows EVERYTHING (courses and prof names), and we had to limit the shown result. This results in user having to provide additional keyword to search for what they wanted.

Proposal

Categorize the search result into undergrad courses, grad courses, and prof name (idea from RMP) to be able to display all the result that the search algorithm generates and tailors more to our target audience (undergrads).

To do this, we are weighing the course priority (1000, 2000, 3000, 4000) in the search algorithm.

Supplementary Information

Eg: I want to search for Introduction to Machine Learning (CS 4375), but the search alg does not prioritize that result unless provided more detail, like "CS".

@egsch @TyHil I wanted your thoughts on this. If I type "Machine Learning" chances are very high I want "CS4375 Introduction to Machine Learning". From the algorithm's perspective as of right now, "Applied" is closer than "Introduction to". Do y'all see a way to rank that higher?
potentially we add the number of people who have taken that class to the autocomplete graph?

[TyHil]

Number of people could be really good! We could also sort the results to put the lower course numbers first so 4375 is above 6375.
