conf.py: improve SearchEnglish to handle terms with dots

2025-07-11T15:11:53+00:00

While search queries already handled words with hyphens correctly, they did not do so for words with dots. To fix this, we - enhance the word tokenizer to treat both dots ('.') and hyphens ('-') as valid characters within words. (For robustness, explicitly exclude dots/hyphens at the start or end of a word from indexing.) - adjust query processing to avoid splitting on dots in search input This allows search queries to correctly match terms such as 'local.conf', 'site.conf', and similar ones now.
