Why
So far we were using generic search endpoint to fetch packages data from the directory. Recently I have added a new API to fetch information about packages directly by the name, supporting multiple packages in one request. Let's migrate to it.
How
Update the directory data fetcher, switch to new API endpoint (which should be faster and more reliable), update the local data to confirm that changes works.
Test plan
Re-fetch data locally after the changes, make sure that
repositoryURLskey did not change (data from directory matches previous results).
