Description
### What Happened?
When searching for the Flatpak app "CherryTree", entering "Cherry" failed to find it. However, entering "Cherr" or Cherryt" found the app OK. This could cause a user to believe an app was not available when it is.
### Steps to Reproduce
1. Open AppCenter and search for "Cherry". CherryTree app is not listed.
2. Search for "Cherr" or Cherryt" or "tree". The app is listed.
### Expected Behavior
The search should work for all reasonable substrings of the app name.
