Description
### Describe the bug
When doing a fuzzy search, I often type exact terms because I find that results are strangely sorted. I know that this has already been addressed (see https://github.com/carloscuesta/gitmoji-cli/issues/302) but I don't think it is good enough at the time of writing.
When I search "types", I expect that "Add or update types" be the first result.
It might be just an opinion so feel free to discuss it of course :)
### Reproduction
- Run `gitmoji -c`
- Type `types`

Research direction
Run `gitmoji -c` and enter `types` to reproduce the ordering described in the issue. Trace the fuzzy-search entry point and compare the results against the expected first result, “Add or update types”; done means exact terms are ranked appropriately and the behavior is covered by a regression check.
