Always support repo code search even if the indexer is not enabled

[arbitrary-dev]

Feature Description

Here it says that Gitea supports "Repository code search":
https://docs.gitea.com/installation/comparison?_highlight=repository&_highlight=code&_highlight=search#code-management

Yet I was disappointed, when I couldn't find one on a running testing instance browsing a couple of repos:
https://try.gitea.io/

Please add it.

The try site and default instances haven't enabled it. You can try in your self-hosted instances.

Why so?

And, is there anywhere in the docs a description on how to enable it?

@arbitrary-dev be aware your text is formulated harsh and unfreandly ... exactly the "demand"ing part!

This is a foss project, if you want to demand anything you can only do so if you have a contract by paying (not donating by the way ...) witch you dont!

Actually I am writing one: Support repo code search without external indexer #29998

And I agree with 6543, since this is an open source community, it's better to put oneself in someone else's shoes and think as the contributors & volunteers

Cool, thanks! @wxiaoguang

Then it seems like the current documentation is a bit ambiguous on the topic.
It says "Repository code search: ✓", when in reality it is:

Repository code search: ✓ *

* external indexer required

Some people just need to grow up and stop being offended by mere words :)
