Order exact match search query first

[Flynsarmy]

When I type / into the search query in the pages list, I'm more often than not looking for the index page. I'd like exact match query results to appear before other results when searching.

I sometimes don't know what the index page's title is, so using the slug is the best option.

So when searching for / in the pages list, it should place the page with the URL route of / first and foremost.

Since all pages start with / this would currently return everything, when the expectation is to return the page with that exact route defined. Or at least to place it with priority in the search results (at the top).

You can run a filter so the search ignores the first /. Pretty simple.
