Comment (by costdev):

 @pikamander2 I see the latest patch has introduced a new filter,
 `term_search_num_results`.

 Some thoughts:
 - The limit could be included in a minor release as a maintenance fix
 given the reason for the ticket, but I'm not sure if a filter should be
 introduced in a minor release or if `20` should added as a limit in 5.9.1
 and the filter added in 6.0. One consideration that may make this suitable
 for a minor release is that `20` may not be the preferred limit for some.
 - The filter should have a docblock. See the other filters in the file for
 examples.
 - The filter may benefit from being applied on a line above the array
 given the line length now. (i.e. `$number = apply_filters(...`)
 - Something to consider later: Since this filter allows for a difference
 between the Gutenberg limit and Classic limit, should the filter also be
 included where Gutenberg sets the limit to `20`, if possible?
