Description

We want to avoid a user making a query with a huge text: this can indeed generate a lot of requests to the object storage.

We could set it as a parameter at the index level. When updating the index config, the root searcher will get the info from the config and will be able to validate the query.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Add a new parameter to the index config to limit query string length and update the root searcher to validate queries.
