Filtering on an exact purl in API take over 1min

Looking for an exact purl can take over 1 minute to render. That's a major usability issue.

It's not an exact purl problem, also happens with https://public.vulnerablecode.io/api/packages?type=pypi&name=django, this is due to the large volume of data and the many operations done to get django data in the background. Opened a ticket here #1416

It is faster but still takes about 10 to 15 seconds and is not fast enough

FYI, the key code to get this fixed is the new API design in #1572
