Description
### Steps to reproduce
This is a rephrasing of https://github.com/element-hq/element-x-android/issues/2762 which has a very vague title.
Join rooms, e.g. #element-x-android:matrix.org (Display name: Element X Android)
Hitting the search icon lets us search the 'Display names' of rooms, but not the aliases of a room
### Outcome
If you type "element-x" no result will be shown. If you search "Element X", the room will be shown.
I would expect that a search finds rooms by alias for sure (and possibly by Display name).
### Application version and app store
Element X 0.7.2 (and earlier)
### Homeserver
Synapse 1.118
