Search API: Merge request support for fields over title
Description
This is a continuation of !166751 (merged), but it was reverted !167887 (merged) because we tested the performance in production with the search_as_you_type
!167432 (comment 2137402075), but it was not good, 30-150 ms vs. 4-8 ms with the existing simple_query_string
over the title.
After those changes, this merge request has been re-targeted with the new approach using simple_query_string
over the title.
For the API, we are adding a new parameter (fields
) to the Search API so we can query merge requests using this new functionality over the title
.
Related to #479051 (closed) and #491727.
