Classification:Enhancement Reproducible:Not Applicable
 
Summary:
The Swift standard library appears to have a very low priority in the ordering of search results. I think it should be very high.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the documentation window in Xcode 8.
2. Type "print" in the search field.

Expected Results:
The print(_:separator:terminator:) function in the Swift standard library shows up very high in the search results. I would expect it at the top.

Actual Results:
The print function doesn't show up at all in the live search results. You have to click through to Show All Results to find it.

Regression:
n/a

Notes:
See the attached screenshot. Similar things happen with a lot of APIs in the Swift standard library.
