Research direction
Start with the README's Installation section and compare its instructions with the linked Visual Studio Gallery search results. Done means the README includes a direct marketplace.visualstudio.com link for LibMan; improving the gallery ranking may depend on the external gallery.

Description
Describe the bug
LibMan seems to be missing from the VS Gallery, or is at least very hard to find.
To Reproduce
- Follow https://github.com/aspnet/LibraryManager?tab=readme-ov-file#installation and search for "Library Manager" in the VS.
- Observe that LibMan is not listed, at least not among the first few dozen extensions.
Since there's no marketplace.visualstudio.com link here to LibMan, nor does Google help, I couldn't actually install the extension.
Expected behavior
LibMan is the first search hit. I'd also suggest a marketplace.visualstudio.com link in the Readme.
Screenshots
Additional context
Using VS 17.14.18, but this can be observed in the online VS Gallery as well: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/search?term=Library%20Manager&target=VS&category=All%20categories&vsVersion=&sortBy=Relevance. This might be a VS Gallery bug.
