This optimises searching for users when using queries consisting out of
one or two characters such as "ab". We optimise such cases by searching
for `LOWER(name)` and `LOWER(username)` instead of using `ILIKE`. Using
`LOWER` produces a _much_ better performing query.
For example, when searching for all users matching the term "a" we'd
produce the following plan:
Limit (cost=637.69..637.74 rows=20 width=805) (actual time=41.983..41.995 rows=20 loops=1)
Buffers: shared hit=8330
-> Sort (cost=637.69..638.61 rows=368 width=805) (actual time=41.982..41.990 rows=20 loops=1)
Sort Key: (CASE WHEN ((name)::text = 'a'::text) THEN 0 WHEN ((username)::text = 'a'::text) THEN 1 WHEN ((email)::text = 'a'::text) THEN 2 ELSE 3 END), name

With the changes in this commit we now produce the following plan
instead:
Limit (cost=13257.48..13257.53 rows=20 width=805) (actual time=1.567..1.579 rows=20 loops=1)

Here we can see the new query is 25 times faster compared to the old
query.
