I talked to @nick_vh about this, we should use search_get_default_module_info() to be able to automatically integrate with Solr or whatever other custom search engine people have installed.

So apparently search_get_default_module_info() is utterly useless. It's only intended to let its callers know at which path it provides search results, it does not provide a function to call to retrieve search results.

AFAICT, hook_search_execute() is the closest thing that we have to an API. Hence I've updated the code to at least use that; now user profiles will also be found.
