Description

### Impacted plugin

Search

### What

We have a request to only search the titles of documents

### How

This will likely involve 2 components
1. A change to the Jetpack Search package which allows one to specify which fields to search
2. A change to the API to handle that option

Research direction

Start by tracing the Jetpack Search package and the API path that handles search options. Determine how a field-selection option could pass from the package to the API, then verify that title-only searches work end to end in both components.
