 In [changeset:"59034" 59034]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="59034"
 REST API: Support exact search in the REST API posts endpoint.

 This changeset adds support for a new `search_semantics` enum query
 parameter that can be passed alongside the `search` string parameter. At
 this point, it only supports "exact" as possible value, but an enum is
 used for forward compatibility with potential enhancements like "sentence"
 search support. If `search_semantics=exact` is passed, it will look for an
 exact match rather than do a full text search, which for some use-cases is
 more appropriate and more performant.

 Fixes #56350.
