Research direction
Start by reviewing issue #20 and the datasource entry point that issues _field_caps requests for autocomplete. Clarify whether the intended result is per-datasource disabling or selecting fields/index sources, then define completion as preventing excessive dynamic-field responses without blocking log requests.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
After changes introduced in https://github.com/quickwit-oss/quickwit-datasource/issues/20, when w're trying to request logs from otel indices for a large period eg 30 days, request for _field_caps either takes a lot of time, holding logs request or even fails due to its response size, because attributes.* field may return infinite amount of fields due to it's highly dynamic nature. I believe it would be nice to have ability to either disable the autocomplete feature for specific datasource or have ability to pick fields/index source for autocomplete to make better experience here.
