This attempts to resolve #117 by calculating LCS between the target and the result name in case when the packages are searched by both names and descriptions (this is not needed when searching by names only).
The output may still be improved - "yaourt-gui-manjaro" could be on a higher position since it contains full target string. This is a subject for further research.
