I can implement this but don't see the use case.  What's the practical
difference between one package archive and another, as far as the user
is concerned?  I have never needed it.

I could rework the keywords search to be more generic, though.  I think
the more typical use cases are:

* filter out unsigned packages
* search for a regex in the source
* filter by author

I still think we should allow only one filter at a time to keep the UI
and the code simple, so these would be compounded in the search spec.
