Customize the facet order in the facet-search endpoint

[macraig]

Currently, sortFacetValuesBy only works on the /search endpoint and is listed as a future possibility improvement for the /facet-search endpoint. This behavior confuses users who expect sortFacetValuesBy to work on both endpoints equally.

We have just released the first RC (release candidate) of Meilisearch containing this improvement!
You can test it by using

• the release assets
• the Meilisearch Docker image

docker run -it --rm -p 7700:7700 -v $(pwd)/meili_data:/meili_data getmeili/meilisearch:v1.8.0-rc.0

You are welcome to leave your feedback in this discussion.

If you encounter any bugs, please report them here.
Thanks in advance for your help and your involvement in Meilisearch ❤️

🎉 Official and stable release containing this change will be available on May 6th, 2024

⚠️ RC (release candidates) are not recommended for production
