      Simple text indexing.
      Initial version will be marked as experimental, so has to be turned on with a command line flag or at runtime.

      db.adminCommand( { setParameter : "*", textSearchEnabled : true } );

      OR

      ./mongod --setParameter textSearchEnabled=true

      Only works via "text" command currently.

      Features:

      • parsing + stemming for latin languages
      • multi-word scoring
      • phrase matching
      • word negation
      • weights per field
      • additional suffix index fields for coverings
      • additional prefix index fields for partitioning
      • specify language per document

      Simple Example:

      > db.foo.insert( { _id: 1 , desc: "the dog is running" } )
> db.foo.insert( { _id: 2 , desc: "the cat is walking" } )
> db.foo.ensureIndex( { "desc": "text" } )
> db.foo.runCommand( "text", { search : "walk" } )
