Hi @yuchenacidgreen thanks for the pull request.

I don't think that
Stores->Configuration->Catalog->Catalog->Storefront->Product Listing Sort by setting was designed to set the sort order for search results. Also, there is no way to provide sorting by relevance once the hardcoded sorting is removed.

What do you think about implementing a configuration entry specifically for search results sorting that will include relevance as an option?
