Registered URLs don't update when changed on GitHub (breaks web search) #112

If I register a package as https://github.com/djb/foo and then rename it to https://github.com/djb/bar the bower registry doesn't update the address, even if I change it in bower.json

This is a problem, because the web search gets a 404 when it then calls https://api.github.com/repos/djb/foo and then the project drops out of the web search results.

See the following for more details: bower/search-server/issues/20 bower/search/issues/36

This should be implemented in bower/bower resolver instead
