#6211: "Only Me" profile fields are searchable by other users

 As noted by user @asitha [https://buddypress.org/support/topic/how-to-
 exclude-hidden-field-from-search/ here], setting profile field visibility
 to "Only Me" does not prevent that field from being searchable by other
 users.

 This results in profiles with a matching term being returned in search
 queries by other users, despite the profile field containing the matching
 term not being visible to those users.
