FusionAuth was not defaulting search.servers if not defined in config or environment

Description

When using Elasticsearch (or OpenSearch) you must provide one or more URIs for FusionAuth to use to connect to this service.

If you do not define search.servers in fusionauth.properties or define the environment variable, or other supported configuration value, we are supported to default to http://localhost:9021.

This default value was not being picked up, so if you did omit the configuration as described, start up would fail when we attempted to bootstrap the connection to Elasticsearch.

Affects versions

TBD.

The issue may have been easier to hit starting in 1.29.3 when we commented out the default config in fusinoauth.properties for the search.servers configuration.

But I think the bug has existed longer than this.

Steps to reproduce

1. Ensure search.servers is not configured in fusionauth.properties and you have not configured via environment variables either.
2. Start up FusionAuth configured to use Elasticsearch.

Expected behavior

We should default the value to http://localhost:9021 and if we cannot find Elasticsearch running there, if running in development mode, we will prompt you in maintenance mode, and if in production mode (silent mode) we will fail to start up with a proper error instead of a Guice exception.

Release Notes

If the search.servers configuration value was not added to the fusionauth.properties configuration file, and you omit the SEARCH_SERVERS environment value, FusionAuth would fail to start. The correct behavior is for FusionAuth to default to http://localhost:9021.
