Description (What does it do?)
Programs are consistently not shown in search results with a text search because scores are calculated separately on each index and not consistent between indexes. Setting search_type="dfs_query_then_fetch' fixes the issue. In #1518 i added a search parameter to use that search type because I was worried that we would get worse search performance. I tested search on rc and search_type="dfs_query_then_fetch' does not seem to affect performance, so we can just use it for all searches.
How can this be tested?
verify that search works as expected
verify that http://open.odl.local:8062/search/?q=Machine+Learning returns a program on the first or second page
