Subject: [PATCH] [README.md] Use proper search term and description

Narrow down the search significantly, in order to solely find files named `publiccode.yml` in the root directory of projects on GitHub.  Also describe that concisely.
Note, before all files which contained the string `publiccode.yml` somewhere in their file-path were emitted.
