Title: Added installation verification to AUR search

Hello, I noticed that both pacman and yaourt have markers to indicate whether or not packages listed in the search results (i.e. pacman -Ss, yaourt -Ss) are installed in the user's system (i.e. package name / version/ votes/ "[installed]"). As much as I love your work with my favorite AUR helper, I noticed that your program does not have this simple, -- yet convenient feature. I have made some changes to implement that feature with no reduction in search time/performance. I tried as much as possible to stay in your system, but alas -- I had to change the type signature of one of your functions, as it made it easier for me to implement the change. I hope it is not a drastic change, and thanks for your great work on Aura!! Excellent program, and best of what is available in my opinion.
