#5611: Zero results on clicking auto-created links in xprofile fields

 BuddyPress automatically links all text in user profile fields between
 commas, e.g. http://csillamvilag.com/modellek/modell/angelaveress/
 (not a great idea)

 However, when you click on the links, they lead to empty search results
 pages, e.g. http://csillamvilag.com/modellek/modell/?s=Felnőtt+modell

 In other words, the search is buggy. It's not performing a text search
 within xprofile fields.

 This is terrible user experience.

 Expected action would be:
 On clicking the auto-created links, a text search is performed on all
 single xprofile field values, and all multi xprofile option names.

 The auto-linking should be disabled at least until the search is fixed.
