Only check ES index_exists? when modify Advanced Search settings

What does this MR do?

Any time the Application Admin Settings get updated, we check if the Elasticsearch index exists. This should only happen when changing a setting from the Advanced Search page. However, I couldn't find a great way to determine which controller or form was making these changes due to all of the settings being stored in one table and the update being done in a service. The only differentiation is that the field names almost all start with elasticsearch_* on the Advanced Search form.

This MR changes two fields which did not follow the elasticsearch_* naming convention and only does the index_exists? call if one of those fields are in the params.
