Description
Given two equally-ranked matches, one in base and one in some other package, we should prefer the base match. This should be simple, we just need to add a small penalty for non-base matches (or some other rule that has the same effect)

Research direction
Start by tracing the match-ranking entry point and how package names are represented in ranked results. Confirm the behavior for equally ranked matches from base and another package, then add regression coverage showing that the base match is preferred. Done means the requested tie-breaking behavior is verified without changing unrelated ranking results.
