Description
I think there are 2 things to improve in the results, one is the order and the other is the name of the section in which they appear.
For example, in the image I show I am searching for stackLayout and searches related to stackLayout appear before the component itself.
- Improvement in order: When performing the search I think the entry to the component should appear first
- Incoherent titles: When searching for stackLayout the entry that is related to the component appears in the
Documentationsection. It's all documentation, right? I think a more coherent title would be the documentation space itself:UI Components. - Incorrect section: This is related to the previous point, 2 StackLayout entries appear within Documentation, one is the component and the other is the API. This is quite confusing, I think each entry should appear with the title of the documentation section, for the component
UI Componentsand for the APIAPI Reference.

Reproduce the stackLayout search shown in the issue and inspect the search entry point and documentation-section metadata. Confirm how component and API entries are ordered and labeled. Done means component results precede related results, with component entries labeled UI Components and API entries labeled API Reference.
