Description
**Overview**
Both the global search and the explorer search are no longer showing the result priority that we implemented in #10560
**Steps To Reproduce**
Type in "ether" in explorer search and global search
_Explorer results_

_Global results_

**Expected behavior**
Results should display as:
1) exact matches (if I type "ether" than I should see "ether grant" before "ethereum grant")
2) matches that start with my term (if I type "ether" I should see "Ether grant" before "This is an Ether Grant")
3) all other matches for my term
Contributor guide
Research direction
Reproduce the issue by searching for "ether" in both explorer search and global search, then review the priority behavior introduced in issue #10560. Done means exact matches appear first, followed by matches starting with the term, then all other matches in both result views.
