Somebody reported in Discord that the search in the Sage docs is broken:

> "Its not really CoCalc related but it seems that the search in the Sage Reference is broken, e.g. https://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/reference/search.html?q=plot+3d gives no results, just [object Object] ..."

I confirmed that this is the case and responded: "In the meantime, I
recommend you use

site:https://doc.sagemath.org/ sage 3d

in Google. It's arguably better than the built-in search.

That's a good point. And I bet he doesn't even read sage-devel, so I
better also email him directly.
