Description

Hello I saw on your documentation that you split a string, for example if we have this name Rolland Levi you search the Rolland and then the Levi. Is there anyway to avoid this and first check the whole word Rolland Levi and if the results are null then split it them?

Thank you

Research direction
Study the existing search logic in the Searchable trait (likely src/Searchable.php). Review the comment thread on the issue, as the maintainer may have discussed potential solutions or workarounds. Focus on implementing an option to attempt matching the full string before falling back to splitting into words, ensuring backward compatibility.
