3866: Update charabia v0.8.0 r=dureuill a=ManyTheFish
# Pull Request
Update Charabia:
- enhance Japanese segmentation
- enhance Latin Tokenization
- words containing `_` are now properly segmented into several words
- brackets `{([])}` are no more considered as context separators so word separated by brackets are now considered near together for the proximity ranking rule
- fixes#3815
- fixes#3778
- fixes [product#151](https://github.com/meilisearch/product/discussions/151)
> Important note: now the float numbers are segmented around the `.` so `3.22` is segmented as [`3`, `.`, `22`] but the middle dot isn't considered as a hard separator, which means that if we search `3.22` we find documents containing `3.22`

3834: Define searchable fields at runtime r=Kerollmops a=ManyTheFish
## Summary
This feature allows the end-user to search in one or multiple attributes using the search parameter `attributesToSearchOn`:
```json
{
"q": "Captain Marvel",
"attributesToSearchOn": ["title"]
}
```
This feature act like a filter, forcing Meilisearch to only return the documents containing the requested words in the attributes-to-search-on. Note that, with the matching strategy `last`, Meilisearch will only ensure that the first word is in the attributes-to-search-on, but, the retrieved documents will be ordered taking into account the word contained in the attributes-to-search-on.
## Trying the prototype
A dedicated docker image has been released for this feature:
#### last prototype version:
```bash
docker pull getmeili/meilisearch:prototype-define-searchable-fields-at-search-time-1
```
#### others prototype versions:
```bash
docker pull getmeili/meilisearch:prototype-define-searchable-fields-at-search-time-0
```
## Technical Detail
The attributes-to-search-on list is given to the search context, then, the search context uses the `fid_word_docids`database using only the allowed field ids instead of the global `word_docids` database. This is the same for the prefix databases.
The database cache is updated with the merged values, meaning that the union of the field-id-database values is only made if the requested key is missing from the cache.
### Relevancy limits
Almost all ranking rules behave as expected when ordering the documents.
Only `proximity` could miss-order documents if all the searched words are in the restricted attribute but a better proximity is found in an ignored attribute in a document that should be ranked lower. I put below a failing test showing it:
```rust
#[actix_rt::test]
async fn proximity_ranking_rule_order() {
let server = Server::new().await;
let index = index_with_documents(
&server,
&json!([
{
"title": "Captain super mega cool. A Marvel story",
// Perfect distance between words in an ignored attribute
"desc": "Captain Marvel",
"id": "1",
},
{
"title": "Captain America from Marvel",
"desc": "a Shazam ersatz",
"id": "2",
}]),
)
.await;
// Document 2 should appear before document 1.
index
.search(json!({"q": "Captain Marvel", "attributesToSearchOn": ["title"], "attributesToRetrieve": ["id"]}), |response, code| {
assert_eq!(code, 200, "{}", response);
assert_eq!(
response["hits"],
json!([
{"id": "2"},
{"id": "1"},
])
);
})
.await;
}
```
Fixing this would force us to create a `fid_word_pair_proximity_docids` and a `fid_word_prefix_pair_proximity_docids` databases which may multiply the keys of `word_pair_proximity_docids` and `word_prefix_pair_proximity_docids` by the number of attributes in the searchable_attributes list. If we think we should fix this test, I'll suggest doing it in another PR.

3768: Fix bugs in graph-based ranking rules + make `words` a graph-based ranking rule r=dureuill a=loiclec
This PR contains three changes:
## 1. Don't call the `words` ranking rule if the term matching strategy is `All`
This is because the purpose of `words` is only to remove nodes from the query graph. It would never do any useful work when the matching strategy was `All`. Remember that the universe was already computed before by computing all the docids corresponding to the "maximally reduced" query graph, which, in the case of `All`, is equal to the original graph.
## 2. The `words` ranking rule is replaced by a graph-based ranking rule.
This is for three reasons:
1. **performance**: graph-based ranking rules benefit from a lot of optimisations by default, which ensures that they are never too slow. The previous implementation of `words` could call `compute_query_graph_docids` many times if some words had to be removed from the query, which would be quite expensive. I was especially worried about its performance in cases where it is placed right after the `sort` ranking rule. Furthermore, `compute_query_graph_docids` would clone a lot of bitmaps many times unnecessarily.
2. **consistency**: every other ranking rule (except `sort`) is graph-based. It makes sense to implement `words` like that as well. It will automatically benefit from all the features, optimisations, and bug fixes that all the other ranking rules get.
3. **surfacing bugs**: as the first ranking rule to be called (most of the time), I'd like `words` to behave the same as the other ranking rules so that we can quickly detect bugs in our graph algorithms. This actually already happened, which is why this PR also contains a bug fix.
## 3. Fix the `update_all_costs_before_nodes` function
It is a bit difficult to explain what was wrong, but I'll try. The bug happened when we had graphs like:
<img width="730" alt="Screenshot 2023-05-16 at 10 58 57" src="https://github.com/meilisearch/meilisearch/assets/6040237/40db1a68-d852-4e89-99d5-0d65757242a7">
and we gave the node `is` as argument.
Then, we'd walk backwards from the node breadth-first. We'd update the costs of:
1. `sun`
2. `thesun`
3. `start`
4. `the`
which is an incorrect order. The correct order is:
1. `sun`
2. `thesun`
3. `the`
4. `start`
That is, we can only update the cost of a node when all of its successors have either already been visited or were not affected by the update to the node passed as argument. To solve this bug, I factored out the graph-traversal logic into a `traverse_breadth_first_backward` function.

3741: Add ngram support to the highlighter r=ManyTheFish a=loiclec
This PR fixes a bug introduced by the search refactor, where ngrams were not highlighted.
The solution was to add the ngrams to the vector of `LocatedQueryTerm` that is given to the `MatchingWords` structure.

3726: Fix prefix highlighting r=loiclec a=ManyTheFish
The prefix queries were not properly highlighted, this PR now highlights only the start of a word when it matched with a prefix
Co-authored-by: ManyTheFish <many@meilisearch.com>
Co-authored-by: Loïc Lecrenier <loic.lecrenier@me.com>
In PR #2773, I added the `chinese`, `hebrew`, `japanese` and `thai`
feature flags to allow melisearch to be built without huge specialed
tokenizations that took up 90% of the melisearch binary size.
Unfortunately, due to some recent changes, this doesn't work anymore.
The problem lies in excessive use of the `default` feature flag, which
infects the dependency graph.
Instead of adding `default-features = false` here and there, it's easier
and more future-proof to not declare `default` in `milli` and
`meilisearch-types`. I've renamed it to `all-tokenizers`, which also
makes it a bit clearer what it's about.

3571: Introduce two filters to select documents with `null` and empty fields r=irevoire a=Kerollmops
# Pull Request
## Related issue
This PR implements the `X IS NULL`, `X IS NOT NULL`, `X IS EMPTY`, `X IS NOT EMPTY` filters that [this comment](https://github.com/meilisearch/product/discussions/539#discussioncomment-5115884) is describing in a very detailed manner.
## What does this PR do?
### `IS NULL` and `IS NOT NULL`
This PR will be exposed as a prototype for now. Below is the copy/pasted version of a spec that defines this filter.
- `IS NULL` matches fields that `EXISTS` AND `= IS NULL`
- `IS NOT NULL` matches fields that `NOT EXISTS` OR `!= IS NULL`
1. `{"name": "A", "price": null}`
2. `{"name": "A", "price": 10}`
3. `{"name": "A"}`
`price IS NULL` would match 1
`price IS NOT NULL` or `NOT price IS NULL` would match 2,3
`price EXISTS` would match 1, 2
`price NOT EXISTS` or `NOT price EXISTS` would match 3
common query : `(price EXISTS) AND (price IS NOT NULL)` would match 2
### `IS EMPTY` and `IS NOT EMPTY`
- `IS EMPTY` matches Array `[]`, Object `{}`, or String `""` fields that `EXISTS` and are empty
- `IS NOT EMPTY` matches fields that `NOT EXISTS` OR are not empty.
1. `{"name": "A", "tags": null}`
2. `{"name": "A", "tags": [null]}`
3. `{"name": "A", "tags": []}`
4. `{"name": "A", "tags": ["hello","world"]}`
5. `{"name": "A", "tags": [""]}`
6. `{"name": "A"}`
7. `{"name": "A", "tags": {}}`
8. `{"name": "A", "tags": {"t1":"v1"}}`
9. `{"name": "A", "tags": {"t1":""}}`
10. `{"name": "A", "tags": ""}`
`tags IS EMPTY` would match 3,7,10
`tags IS NOT EMPTY` or `NOT tags IS EMPTY` would match 1,2,4,5,6,8,9
`tags IS NULL` would match 1
`tags IS NOT NULL` or `NOT tags IS NULL` would match 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
`tags EXISTS` would match 1,2,3,4,5,7,8,9,10
`tags NOT EXISTS` or `NOT tags EXISTS` would match 6
common query : `(tags EXISTS) AND (tags IS NOT NULL) AND (tags IS NOT EMPTY)` would match 2,4,5,8,9
## What should the reviewer do?
- Check that I tested the filters
- Check that I deleted the ids of the documents when deleting documents
