Description

**Issue Type:**

Enhancement

**Platform:**

ReactiveSearch for Web

**Description:**

ReactiveSearch today doesn't support querying the fields of an object field with a [nested mapping](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/6.4/nested.html).

A nested object requires a different query (where a path for the nested field needs to be specified) along with the original query. The same applies to an aggregation.

This issue proposes to add a `nestedField` prop in all the data-driven components we have to support the use-case of a nested object.

Prop definition for the field looks like:

**nestedField** `String` [optional]
When your dataField is present inside an object of type [`nested`](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/6.4/nested.html), this can be used to set the path of the nested field. Setting this allows searching within documents belonging to the path.

**Reactivesearch version:** x.y.z

2.12.1
