search_api 8.x-1.30

This is release 1.30 of the Search API module, containing several bug fixes and new features.

Known issue: If you are using the “HTML filter” processor, you should not use this release, since it contains a considerable performance regression (#3388678: Performance issues after fixing 'PHP 8.1 preg_replace()' issue) that will slow down indexing drastically for larger field values. Please use release 8.x-1.31 instead, or stay with 8.x-1.29 in case you are still using Drupal 9.

One important new change is that, thanks to the work of Steve Mokris (@smokris), the database backend finally supports phrase searching! It does use considerable resources so is disabled by default, but please feel free to give it a try if you are using the database backend on your site. (Go to your search server settings and set “Phrase indexing” to “Bigram”.)
