ElasticSearch Essentials 3.17.12

• Require Standard Library by Xon v1.18.0+
• Require Search Improvements v2.8.3+
• Improve 3rd party add-on compatibility which extend the Search Controller and implement search handlers
• Fix cases where an impossible search is sent to ElasticSearch instead of returning early
• Fix ajax on the advanced search form was disabled when the showing suggestions on few results was enabled
• Fix autocomplete with multiple types could return less results than expected
• Add autocomplete support for @DragonByte Tech eCommerce

• Require Standard Library by Xon v1.16.0+
• Move some permission handling code into StandardLib so it has a common hook point

• Fix "Redirect to top validated suggestion" option was inverted.
• Fix "Redirect to top validated suggestion" could redirect to non-validated suggestions if "Validate Suggestions" was disabled

• Fix regression in v3.13.1 causing most forums to be skipped from autocomplete/similar search

• Improve autocomplete results by excluding forums where the user lacks "view content" permission (aka they can see titles but not content).
• Fix "Enable suggestions only for the first page of search results" was not applying for low search result count
• Harden displaying "no results found" for search results (do not risk using cached search results).
  This add-on is not vulnerable to leaking cached search results like Search Improvements v2.8.0/v2.8.1 did.
  However if Search Improvements v2.8.0/v2.8.1 was installed then the site was still vulnerable to this issue

• Improve detection of 'empty results' for various search result options (Search Improvements v2.8.0+ compatibility)
• Add "Collapsible similar content" style property option (for this add-on's widget), allowing the similar thread box to be collapsed by the user and remembered via a cookie
• Adjust various search option defaults:
  • Autocomplete sort type: Relevance
  • Enable Autocomplete for mobiles: true
  • Apply content weights to auto-complete: true
  • Weight by reply count (threads): 0.4
  • Exact text search - body: true
  • Exact title boost: 2
  • Title boost: 1.4

• Fix uninstaller (Missing function argument)
• Fix XFRM support ("Unknown filter type unit" error)

• Initial php 8.2 compatibility update
• If installed, require Search Improvements v2.6.0+
• Support Search Improvements v2.7.0+ search term display
• Add 'include deleted' status to URL constraints
• Do not autoconfigure the ESE similar thread widget for new installs with a position as XFES ships with one.
• Avoid triggering similar thread lookups for titles with single character titles

• Improve compatibility with 3rd party add-ons which implement a search handler but not the entity handler for the backing type

• Fix unexpected additional searches on no results for searches with no keywords could be triggered when "Enable suggestions only for the first page of search results" is enabled
