Change orders of results of a search

Hello @bbrancot

Just a small suggestion for when we are done with the last issue: I noticed than when using the search tool, the results are not necessarely in the most convenient order:

Here, "T4" and "T4LD" appear before the ones with "T4" in their NCBI ID, but "T4" with NCBI ID appears after the phages with "T4" in their NCBI ID. This is unfortunate because users are probably most likely to want to access to data for the "T4" with NCBI ID, but it could not be accessible easily (for example when doing a quick search in the search bar).

For users, I think it would be best if the order would be this way, if that's not too complicated to implement:

  1. Results that have the searched characters in their name of virus/host/data source, AND a NCBI ID
  2. Results that have the searched characters in their name of virus/host/data source, WITHOUT a NCBI ID
  3. Results that have the searched characters elsewhere than their name
