Manticore query cache fails to cache PACKEDFACTORS()

[vytautasvers]

Bug Description:

Recently tried to enable Manticore’s native query cache, however we ran into a situation regarding caching PACKEDFACTORS() output, regardless if it’s json or not. On a cache miss we receive values, on a cache hit we receive empty column, as mentioned by @sanikolaev on Community Slack (https://manticore-community.slack.com/archives/C7NSLK1NE/p1731066852754549) this could be a bug. We were able to reproduce it on several docker based instances with versions 6.0.4 and 6.3.6.

seems like a bug as query cache completely skip full text matching and ranking takes all ft related values from the cache.

It should be fixed to by pass query cache and do full text search and ranking if the query has a packedfactors

I've just fixed this issue at c17259e you need to use package from the dev repository after CI passed.
Now the daemon will not put or check the query with the packedfactors at the query cache.
