733: Avoid a prefix-related worst-case scenario in the proximity criterion r=loiclec a=loiclec
# Pull Request
## Related issue
Somewhat fixes (until merged into meilisearch) https://github.com/meilisearch/meilisearch/issues/3118
## What does this PR do?
When a query ends with a word and a prefix, such as:
```
word pr
```
Then we first determine whether `pre` *could possibly* be in the proximity prefix database before querying it. There are then three possibilities:
1. `pr` is not in any prefix cache because it is not the prefix of many words. We don't query the proximity prefix database. Instead, we list all the word derivations of `pre` through the FST and query the regular proximity databases.
2. `pr` is in the prefix cache but cannot be found in the proximity prefix databases. **In this case, we partially disable the proximity ranking rule for the pair `word pre`.** This is done as follows:
1. Only find the documents where `word` is in proximity to `pre` **exactly** (no derivations)
2. Otherwise, assume that their proximity in all the documents in which they coexist is >= 8
3. `pr` is in the prefix cache and can be found in the proximity prefix databases. In this case we simply query the proximity prefix databases.
Note that if a prefix is longer than 2 bytes, then it cannot be in the proximity prefix databases. Also, proximities larger than 4 are not present in these databases either. Therefore, the impact on relevancy is:
1. For common prefixes of one or two letters: we no longer distinguish between proximities from 4 to 8
2. For common prefixes of more than two letters: we no longer distinguish between any proximities
3. For uncommon prefixes: nothing changes
Regarding (1), it means that these two documents would be considered equally relevant according to the proximity rule for the query `heard pr` (IF `pr` is the prefix of more than 200 words in the dataset):
```json
[
{ "text": "I heard there is a faster proximity criterion" },
{ "text": "I heard there is a faster but less relevant proximity criterion" }
]
```
Regarding (2), it means that two documents would be considered equally relevant according to the proximity rule for the query "faster pro":
```json
[
{ "text": "I heard there is a faster but less relevant proximity criterion" }
{ "text": "I heard there is a faster proximity criterion" },
]
```
But the following document would be considered more relevant than the two documents above:
```json
{ "text": "I heard there is a faster swimmer who is competing in the pro section of the competition " }
```
Note, however, that this change of behaviour only occurs when using the set-based version of the proximity criterion. In cases where there are fewer than 1000 candidate documents when the proximity criterion is called, this PR does not change anything.
---
## Performance
I couldn't use the existing search benchmarks to measure the impact of the PR, but I did some manual tests with the `songs` benchmark dataset.
```
1. 10x 'a':
- 640ms ⟹ 630ms = no significant difference
2. 10x 'b':
- set-based: 4.47s ⟹ 7.42 = bad, ~2x regression
- dynamic: 1s ⟹ 870 ms = no significant difference
3. 'Someone I l':
- set-based: 250ms ⟹ 12 ms = very good, x20 speedup
- dynamic: 21ms ⟹ 11 ms = good, x2 speedup
4. 'billie e':
- set-based: 623ms ⟹ 2ms = very good, x300 speedup
- dynamic: ~4ms ⟹ 4ms = no difference
5. 'billie ei':
- set-based: 57ms ⟹ 20ms = good, ~2x speedup
- dynamic: ~4ms ⟹ ~2ms. = no significant difference
6. 'i am getting o'
- set-based: 300ms ⟹ 60ms = very good, 5x speedup
- dynamic: 30ms ⟹ 6ms = very good, 5x speedup
7. 'prologue 1 a 1:
- set-based: 3.36s ⟹ 120ms = very good, 30x speedup
- dynamic: 200ms ⟹ 30ms = very good, 6x speedup
8. 'prologue 1 a 10':
- set-based: 590ms ⟹ 18ms = very good, 30x speedup
- dynamic: 82ms ⟹ 35ms = good, ~2x speedup
```
Performance is often significantly better, but there is also one regression in the set-based implementation with the query `b b b b b b b b b b`.

732: Interpret synonyms as phrases r=loiclec a=loiclec
# Pull Request
## Related issue
Fixes (when merged into meilisearch) https://github.com/meilisearch/meilisearch/issues/3125
## What does this PR do?
We now map multi-word synonyms to phrases instead of loose words. Such that the request:
```
btw I am going to nyc soon
```
is interpreted as (when the synonym interpretation is chosen for both `btw` and `nyc`):
```
"by the way" I am going to "New York City" soon
```
instead of:
```
by the way I am going to New York City soon
```
This prevents queries containing multi-word synonyms to exceed to word length limit and degrade the search performance.
In terms of relevancy, there is a debate to have. I personally think this could be considered an improvement, since it would be strange for a user to search for:
```
good DIY project
```
and have a result such as:
```
{
"text": "whether it is a good project to do, you'll have to decide for yourself"
}
```
However, for synonyms such as `NYC -> New York City`, then we will stop matching documents where `New York` is separated from `City`. This is however solvable by adding an additional mapping: `NYC -> New York`.
## Performance
With the old behaviour, some long search requests making heavy uses of synonyms could take minutes to be executed. This is no longer the case, these search requests now take an average amount of time to be resolved.

2. Cache intermediary results between different calls to the `exactness` criterion.
## Performance Results

747: Soft-deletion computation no longer depends on the mapsize r=irevoire a=dureuill
# Pull Request
## Related issue
Related to https://github.com/meilisearch/meilisearch/issues/3231: After removing `--max-index-size`, the `mapsize` will always be unrelated to the actual max size the user wants for their DB, so it doesn't make sense to use these values any longer.
This implements solution 2.3 from https://github.com/meilisearch/meilisearch/issues/3231#issuecomment-1348628824
## What does this PR do?
### User-visible
- Soft-deleted are no longer deleted when there is less than 10% of the mapsize available or when they take more than 10% of the mapsize
- Instead, they are deleted when they are more soft deleted than regular documents, or when they take more than 1GiB disk space (estimated).
### Implementation standpoint
1. Adds a `DeletionStrategy` struct to replace the boolean `disable_soft_deletion` that we had up until now. This enum allows us to specify that we want "always hard", "always soft", or to use the dynamic soft-deletion strategy (default).
2. Uses the current strategy when deleting documents, with the new heuristics being used in the `DeletionStrategy::Dynamic` variant.
3. Updates the tests to use the appropriate DeletionStrategy whenever needed (one of `AlwaysHard` or `AlwaysSoft` depending on the test)
Note to reviewers: this PR is optimized for a commit-by-commit review.

This is simply an integration test ensuring that the sort criterion works properly.
However, only one version of the algorithm is tested here (the iterative one). To test the version that uses the facet DB, one has to manually set the `CANDIDATES_THRESHOLD` constant to `0`. I have done that and ensured that the test still succeeds. However, in the future, we will probably want to have an option to force which algorithm is used at runtime, for testing purposes.

723: Fix bug in handling of soft deleted documents when updating settings r=Kerollmops a=loiclec
# Pull Request
## Related issue
Fixes (partially, until merged into meilisearch) https://github.com/meilisearch/meilisearch/issues/3021
## What does this PR do?
This PR fixes the bug where a `missing key in documents database` internal error message could appear when indexing documents.
When updating the settings, before clearing the database and before creating the transform output, we now modify the `ExternalDocumentsIds` structure to get rid of all references to soft deleted document ids in its FSTs.
It used to be that updating the settings would clear the soft-deleted document ids, but keep the original `ExternalDocumentsIds` structure. As a consequence of this, when processing a future document addition, we could wrongly believe that a document was being replaced when, in fact, it was a completely new document. See the tests `bug_3021_first`, `bug_3021_second`, and `bug_3021` for a minimal test case that would have reproduced the issue.
We need to take special care to:
- evaluate how users should update to v0.30.1 (containing this fix): dump? reimporting all documents from scratch?
- understand IF/HOW this bug could have caused duplicate documents to be returned
- and evaluate the correctness of the fix, of course :)

719: Add more members of `filter_parser` to `milli::` & `From<&str>` implementation for `Token` r=Kerollmops a=GregoryConrad
## What does this PR do?
The current `milli::Filter` and `milli::FilterCondition` APIs require working with some members of `filter_parser` directly that `milli::` does *not* re-export to its users (at least when not parsing input using `parse`). Also, using `filter_parser` does not make sense when using milli from an embedded context where there is no query to parse.
Instead of reworking `milli::Filter` and `milli::FilterCondition`, this PR adds two non-breaking changes that ease the use of milli:
- Re-exports more members of the dependent version of `filter_parser` in `milli`
- Implements `From<&str>` for `filter_parser::Token`
- This will also allow some basic tests that need to create a `Token` from a string to avoid some boilerplate.
In conjunction, both of these will allow milli users to easily create a `Token` from a `&str` without needing to add `filter_parser` as an extra dependency.
Note: I wanted to use `FromStr` for the `From` implementation; however, it requires returning a `Result` which is not needed for the conversion. Thus, I just left it as `From<&str>`.

706: Limit the reindexing caused by updating settings when not needed r=curquiza a=GregoryConrad
## What does this PR do?
When updating index settings using `update::Settings`, sometimes a `reindex` of `update::Settings` is triggered when it doesn't need to be. This PR aims to prevent those unnecessary `reindex` calls.
For reference, here is a snippet from the current `execute` method in `update::Settings`:
```rust
// ...
if stop_words_updated
|| faceted_updated
|| synonyms_updated
|| searchable_updated
|| exact_attributes_updated
{
self.reindex(&progress_callback, &should_abort, old_fields_ids_map)?;

708: Reduce memory usage of the MatchingWords structure r=ManyTheFish a=loiclec
# Pull Request
## Related issue
Fixes (partially) https://github.com/meilisearch/meilisearch/issues/3115
## What does this PR do?
1. Reduces the memory usage caused by the creation of a 10-word query tree by 20x.
This is done by deduplicating the `MatchingWord` values, which are heavy because of their inner DFA. The deduplication works by wrapping each `MatchingWord` in a reference-counted box and using a hash map to determine whether a `MatchingWord` DFA already exists for a certain signature, or whether a new one needs to be built.
2. Avoid the worst-case scenario of creating a `MatchingWord` for extremely long words that cannot be indexed by milli.

712: Fix bulk facet indexing bug r=Kerollmops a=loiclec
# Pull Request
## Related issue
Fixes (partially, until merged into meilisearch) https://github.com/meilisearch/meilisearch/issues/3165
## What does this PR do?
Fixes a bug where indexing certain numbers of filterable attribute values in bulk led to corrupted facet databases. This was due to a lossy integer conversion which would ultimately prevent entire levels of the facet database to be written into LMDB.
More specifically, this change was made:
```diff
- if cur_writer_len as u8 >= self.min_level_size {
+ if cur_writer_len >= self.min_level_size as usize {
```
I also checked other comparisons to `min_level_size` and other conversions such as `x as u8` in this part of the codebase.

1. Handle keys with variable length correctly
This fixes https://github.com/meilisearch/meilisearch/issues/3042 and
is easily reproducible with the updated fuzz tests, which now generate
keys with variable lengths.
2. Prevent adding facets to the database if their encoded value does
not satisfy `valid_lmdb_key`.
This fixes an indexing failure when a document had a filterable
attribute containing a value whose length is higher than ~500 bytes.
693: use the lmdb-master.3 branch r=Kerollmops a=irevoire
After investigating https://github.com/meilisearch/meilisearch/issues/3017, we found out that it was due to lmdb and that, without any code change on our side, bumping using the lmdb-master-3 branch fix our issues.
But, we’re not really confident about what changed between the `mdb.master` and `mdb.master3` branches; thus this is a temporary change, and we hope we’ll be able to move to the new version of heed asap (either before the end of the pre-release or for the next release).
--------
The bug is hard to reproduce; I can reproduce it 100% of the time on my archlinux personal computer. But on a scaleway archlinux bare-metal machine, it doesn’t reproduce. It’s flaky on our test suite, but `@loiclec` was able to write a minimal test that reproduces it every time on macOS.
Basically, what happens is when there are multiple threads opening databases in a different directory at the same time.
If there are 10 or more threads running at the same time, lmdb starts throwing the `Invalid argument (os error 22)` error for no reason, we believe.
I would like to submit an issue to lmdb, but I don’t really have the time to write a test in C without heed currently.
`@hyc,` if you want to take a look at it, here is the repo that reproduces the issue on macOS: https://github.com/irevoire/heed-bug

# Pull Request
## Related issue
Related meilisearch/meilisearch#3000
## What does this PR do?
### User
- Filters using `field = inf`, (or `infinite`, `NaN`) now match the value as a string rather than returning an internal error.
- Filters using `field < inf` (or other comparison operators) now return an invalid_filter error rather than returning an internal error, much like when using `field < aaa`.
### Implementation
- Add new `NonFiniteFloat` error variants to the filter-parser errors
- Add `Token::parse_as_finite_float` that can fail both when the string is not a float and when the float is not finite
- Refactor `Filter::inner_evaluate` to always use `parse_as_finite_float` instead of just `parse`

Satisfies many issues for clippy. The complaints are mostly:
* Passing reference where a variable is already a reference.
* Using clone where a struct already implements `Copy`
* Using `ok_or_else` when it is a closure that returns a value instead of using the closure to call function (hence we use `ok_or`)
* Unambiguous lifetimes don't need names, so we can just use `'_`
* Using `return` when it is not needed as we are on the last expression of a function.

587: Word prefix pair proximity docids indexation refactor r=Kerollmops a=loiclec
# Pull Request
## What does this PR do?
Refactor the code of `WordPrefixPairProximityDocIds` to make it much faster, fix a bug, and add a unit test.
## Why is it faster?
Because we avoid using a sorter to insert the (`word1`, `prefix`, `proximity`) keys and their associated bitmaps, and thus we don't have to sort a potentially very big set of data. I have also added a couple of other optimisations:
1. reusing allocations
2. using a prefix trie instead of an array of prefixes to get all the prefixes of a word
3. inserting directly into the database instead of putting the data in an intermediary grenad when possible. Also avoid checking for pre-existing values in the database when we know for certain that they do not exist.
## What bug was fixed?
When reindexing, the `new_prefix_fst_words` prefixes may look like:
```
["ant", "axo", "bor"]
```
which we group by first letter:
```
[["ant", "axo"], ["bor"]]
```
Later in the code, if we have the word2 "axolotl", we try to find which subarray of prefixes contains its prefixes. This check is done with `word2.starts_with(subarray_prefixes[0])`, but `"axolotl".starts_with("ant")` is false, and thus we wrongly think that there are no prefixes in `new_prefix_fst_words` that are prefixes of `axolotl`.
## StrStrU8Codec
I had to change the encoding of `StrStrU8Codec` to make the second string null-terminated as well. I don't think this should be a problem, but I may have missed some nuances about the impacts of this change.
## Requests when reviewing this PR
I have explained what the code does in the module documentation of `word_pair_proximity_prefix_docids`. It would be nice if someone could read it and give their opinion on whether it is a clear explanation or not.
I also have a couple questions regarding the code itself:
- Should we clean up and factor out the `PrefixTrieNode` code to try and make broader use of it outside this module? For now, the prefixes undergo a few transformations: from FST, to array, to prefix trie. It seems like it could be simplified.
- I wrote a function called `write_into_lmdb_database_without_merging`. (1) Are we okay with such a function existing? (2) Should it be in `grenad_helpers` instead?
## Benchmark Results
We reduce the time it takes to index about 8% in most cases, but it varies between -3% and -20%.

594: Fix(Search): Fix phrase search candidates computation r=Kerollmops a=ManyTheFish
This bug is an old bug but was hidden by the proximity criterion,
Phrase searches were always returning an empty candidates list when the proximity criterion is deactivated.
Before the fix, we were trying to find any words[n] near words[n]
instead of finding any words[n] near words[n+1], for example:
for a phrase search '"Hello world"' we were searching for "hello" near "hello" first, instead of "hello" near "world".

NOTE: The token_at_depth is method is a bit useless now, as the only
cases where there would be a toke at depth 1000 are the cases where
the parser already stack-overflowed earlier.

602: Use mimalloc as the default allocator r=Kerollmops a=loiclec
## What does this PR do?
Use mimalloc as the global allocator for milli's benchmarks on macOS.
## Why?
On Linux, we use jemalloc, which is a very fast allocator. But on macOS, we currently use the system allocator, which is very slow. In practice, this difference in allocator speed means that it is difficult to gain insight into milli's performance by running benchmarks locally on the Mac.
By using mimalloc, which is another excellent allocator, we reduce the speed difference between the two platforms.

556: Add EXISTS filter r=loiclec a=loiclec
## What does this PR do?
Fixes issue [#2484](https://github.com/meilisearch/meilisearch/issues/2484) in the meilisearch repo.
It creates a `field EXISTS` filter which selects all documents containing the `field` key.
For example, with the following documents:
```json
[{
"id": 0,
"colour": []
},
{
"id": 1,
"colour": ["blue", "green"]
},
{
"id": 2,
"colour": 145238
},
{
"id": 3,
"colour": null
},
{
"id": 4,
"colour": {
"green": []
}
},
{
"id": 5,
"colour": {}
},
{
"id": 6
}]
```
Then the filter `colour EXISTS` selects the ids `[0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5]`. The filter `colour NOT EXISTS` selects `[6]`.
## Details
There is a new database named `facet-id-exists-docids`. Its keys are field ids and its values are bitmaps of all the document ids where the corresponding field exists.
To create this database, the indexing part of milli had to be adapted. The implementation there is basically copy/pasted from the code handling the `facet-id-f64-docids` database, with appropriate modifications in place.
There was an issue involving the flattening of documents during (re)indexing. Previously, the following JSON:
```json
{
"id": 0,
"colour": [],
"size": {}
}
```
would be flattened to:
```json
{
"id": 0
}
```
prior to being given to the extraction pipeline.
This transformation would lose the information that is needed to populate the `facet-id-exists-docids` database. Therefore, I have also changed the implementation of the `flatten-serde-json` crate. Now, as it traverses the Json, it keeps track of which key was encountered. Then, at the end, if a previously encountered key is not present in the flattened object, it adds that key to the object with an empty array as value. For example:
```json
{
"id": 0,
"colour": {
"green": [],
"blue": 1
},
"size": {}
}
```
becomes
```json
{
"id": 0,
"colour": [],
"colour.green": [],
"colour.blue": 1,
"size": []
}
```

The idea is to directly create a sorted and merged list of bitmaps
in the form of a BTreeMap<FieldId, RoaringBitmap> instead of creating
a grenad::Reader where the keys are field_id and the values are docids.
Then we send that BTreeMap to the thing that handles TypedChunks, which
inserts its content into the database.
When a document deletion occurs, instead of deleting the document we mark it as deleted
in the new “soft deleted” bitmap. It is then removed from the search, and all the other
endpoints.

563: Improve the `estimatedNbHits` when a `distinctAttribute` is specified r=irevoire a=Kerollmops
This PR is related to https://github.com/meilisearch/meilisearch/issues/2532 but it doesn't fix it entirely. It improves it by computing the excluded documents (the ones with an already-seen distinct value) before stopping the loop, I think it was a mistake and should always have been this way.
The reason it doesn't fix the issue is that Meilisearch is lazy, just to be sure not to compute too many things and answer by taking too much time. When we deduplicate the documents by their distinct value we must do it along the water, everytime we see a new document we check that its distinct value of it doesn't collide with an already returned document.
The reason we can see the correct result when enough documents are fetched is that we were lucky to see all of the different distinct values possible in the dataset and all of the deduplication was done, no document can be returned.
If we wanted to implement that to have a correct `extimatedNbHits` every time we should have done a pass on the whole set of possible distinct values for the distinct attribute and do a big intersection, this could cost a lot of CPU cycles.

The issue was that in the evaluation of the filter, I was using the deref implementation instead of calling the `value` method of my token.
To avoid the problem happening again, I removed the deref implementation; now, you need to either call the `lexeme` or the `value` methods but can't rely on a « default » implementation to get a string out of a token.

538: speedup exact words r=Kerollmops a=MarinPostma
This PR make `exact_words` return an `Option` instead of an empty set, since set creation is costly, as noticed by `@kerollmops.`
I was not convinces that this was the cause for all of the performance drop we measured, and then realized that methods that initialized it were called recursively which caused initialization times to add up. While the first fix solves the issue when not using exact words, using exact word remained way more expensive that it should be. To address this issue, the exact words are cached into the `Context`, so they are only initialized once.

514: Stop flattening every field r=Kerollmops a=irevoire
When we need to flatten a document:
* The primary key contains a `.`.
* Some fields need to be flattened
Instead of flattening the whole object and thus creating a lot of allocations with the `serde_json_flatten_crate`, we instead generate a minimal sub-object containing only the fields that need to be flattened.
That should create fewer allocations and thus index faster.

483: Enhance matching words r=Kerollmops a=ManyTheFish
# Summary
Enhance milli word-matcher making it handle match computing and cropping.
# Implementation
## Computing best matches for cropping
Before we were considering that the first match of the attribute was the best one, this was accurate when only one word was searched but was missing the target when more than one word was searched.
Now we are searching for the best matches interval to crop around, the chosen interval is the one:
1) that have the highest count of unique matches
> for example, if we have a query `split the world`, then the interval `the split the split the` has 5 matches but only 2 unique matches (1 for `split` and 1 for `the`) where the interval `split of the world` has 3 matches and 3 unique matches. So the interval `split of the world` is considered better.
2) that have the minimum distance between matches
> for example, if we have a query `split the world`, then the interval `split of the world` has a distance of 3 (2 between `split` and `the`, and 1 between `the` and `world`) where the interval `split the world` has a distance of 2. So the interval `split the world` is considered better.
3) that have the highest count of ordered matches
> for example, if we have a query `split the world`, then the interval `the world split` has 2 ordered words where the interval `split the world` has 3. So the interval `split the world` is considered better.
## Cropping around the best matches interval
Before we were cropping around the interval without checking the context.
Now we are cropping around words in the same context as matching words.
This means that we will keep words that are farther from the matching words but are in the same phrase, than words that are nearer but separated by a dot.
> For instance, for the matching word `Split` the text:
`Natalie risk her future. Split The World is a book written by Emily Henry. I never read it.`
will be cropped like:
`…. Split The World is a book written by Emily Henry. …`
and not like:
`Natalie risk her future. Split The World is a book …`

associated to their internal id during.
The smartstring remove heap allocation / memory usage and should
improve the cache locality.

472: Remove useless variables in proximity r=Kerollmops a=ManyTheFish
Was passing by plane sweep algorithm to find some inspiration, and I discover that we have useless variables that were not detected because of the recursive function.

467: optimize prefix database r=Kerollmops a=MarinPostma
This pr introduces two optimizations that greatly improve the speed of computing prefix databases.
- The time that it takes to create the prefix FST has been divided by 5 by inverting the way we iterated over the words FST.
- We unconditionally and needlessly checked for documents to remove in `word_prefix_pair`, which caused an iteration over the whole database.

436: Speed up the word prefix databases computation time r=Kerollmops a=Kerollmops
This PR depends on the fixes done in #431 and must be merged after it.
In this PR we will bring the `WordPrefixPairProximityDocids`, `WordPrefixDocids` and, `WordPrefixPositionDocids` update structures to a new era, a better era, where computing the word prefix pair proximities costs much fewer CPU cycles, an era where this update structure can use the, previously computed, set of new word docids from the newly indexed batch of documents.
---
The `WordPrefixPairProximityDocids` is an update structure, which means that it is an object that we feed with some parameters and which modifies the LMDB database of an index when asked for. This structure specifically computes the list of word prefix pair proximities, which correspond to a list of pairs of words associated with a proximity (the distance between both words) where the second word is not a word but a prefix e.g. `s`, `se`, `a`. This word prefix pair proximity is associated with the list of documents ids which contains the pair of words and prefix at the given proximity.
The origin of the performances issue that this struct brings is related to the fact that it starts its job from the beginning, it clears the LMDB database before rewriting everything from scratch, using the other LMDB databases to achieve that. I hope you understand that this is absolutely not an optimized way of doing things.

442: fix phrase search r=curquiza a=MarinPostma
Run the exact match search on 7 words windows instead of only two. This makes false positive very very unlikely, and impossible on phrase query that are less than seven words.
