Description
Requests to plugin search URLs using the 'ugly' /plugins/?s={{term}} format execute a 302 redirect to a clean, /plugins/search/{{term}}/ format.
E.g., https://wordpress.org/plugins/?s=gutenberg > https://wordpress.org/plugins/search/gutenberg/
In line with SEO best practice, this redirect should be a 301 'permanent' redirect, rather than a 302 'temporary' redirect - otherwise, equity may be lost in the redirect, and browsers will not cache it.
