Description searching is very slow and limited, so i would like to provide a patch to allow users to search by description within normal search results.
Created attachment 46746 [details] this revision allows searching by description within normal searches a comma is used to seperate the package search and the description search. If a user wanted to search for all packeges with "gnome" in its name and "theme" in it's description, they would type "emerge gnome,theme"

Created attachment 54343 [details, diff] this is a patch to allow searching by description within normal searches
Created attachment 54346 [details, diff] this patch allows searching by description within normal searches. i actually made this improvement for myself, because i was annoyed by how long description searching took. The patch allows the user to make a search for, say, net, and in all packages that have net in their name emerge will search for the description. The package name and the description search re seperaed by a comma so the command would ook like this: emerge -s @net,www
bug fixxed by myself
