Great idea from @wesleywiser on #488:

It seems like the libraries::ffi::C category will have 80% of the crates and the other categories will be extremely sparse by comparison. It also seems to me that if I want to use an external library, I already know the name of that library so what I really want is a way to search by library name and filter to just FFI crates.

I guess it just seems strange to me to have a separate category for such a small number of crates. libraries::data-structures, for example, might have hundreds or even thousands of crates in it. Breaking up the "language ffi crates" into sub categories seems like a case of "premature categorization" if you will.

Sorry to keep bringing up search filters for categories, but if you could limit search results by category, then searching for "ruby" within libraries::ffi seems like it would be sufficient.
