Version v2

Describe the problem you would like to solve Queries of the ROR API of the names field can't be restricted to names of type _rordisplay only in v2. A search for "Harvard University" in the names field produces several results where the phrase appears in aliases, for example: https://api.ror.org/v2/organizations?query.advanced=names.value:%22Harvard+University%22

Describe the solution you'd like A filter or other means of restricting queries only to the ror_display name

Who would benefit from this feature? Developers and others attempting to find a specific institution by name by finding values in rordisplay
