feat(aio): include more API results in search

By adding a more relaxed search on the title
of docs, we are more likely to catch API docs.

The additional search terms match anything
with a word in the title that starts with the
characters of the first term in the search.

E.g. if the search is "ngCont guide" then
search for "ngCont guide titleWords:ngCont*"
