Usability testing for legal query updates

[patphongs]

**Blocked by #6360

Summary

What we're after:
We are making several changes to the way Elasticsearch will handle queries. This will hopefully help with several issues:

• Removal of reserve/stop words from search results
• Removal of stemming from search results
• Exact string matching

So far, in the development environment, we have re-indexed to use the standard analyzer. Important note: This has only been done for current MURs, since re-indexing archived MURs is very resource intensive. We hope to get cursory feedback about current MURs first before we apply the re-index for archived MURs.

In addition, we would like to switch to using the simple_query_string which provides a simpler query syntax, lenient on invalid syntax, and simplifies the query syntax.
