Matching

• Every word must match. If none match, any word may.
• A misspelt Latin word retries on its stem, so Mujika finds Ave Mujica.
• Simplified, traditional and Japanese forms of a character are the same.
• The things themselves rank first: characters and songs, then cards and events, then stickers and items.

Community posts are not included, because what they show depends on who is reading. Search them with GET /api/v1/community/posts?q=.
