Description

Hello!

When searching for the package `reflectcpp` at https://conan.io/center, I have no results: https://conan.io/center/recipes?value=reflectcpp

However, once I add the missing hyphen in the package name, `reflect-cpp`, it works properly: https://conan.io/center/recipes?value=reflect-cpp

------

It would be great in case the search engine could consider ignoring hyphens and underscores when looking for a package name; it would improve the result for sure.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the two recipe searches shown in the issue and trace the TypeScript search entry point used by the Conan Center website. Determine where package-name matching is performed; done means searches for reflectcpp and reflect-cpp return the same package results while preserving existing search behavior.
