/**
 * Preprocess text for search.
 *
 * This hook is called to preprocess both the text added to the search index
 * and the keywords users have submitted for searching. The same processing
 * needs to be applied to both so that searches will find matches.
 *
 * Possible uses:
 * - Adding spaces between words of Chinese or Japanese text.
 * - Stemming words down to their root words to allow matches between, for
 *   instance, walk, walked, walking, and walks in searching.
 * - Expanding abbreviations and acronyms that occur in text.
 *
 * @param string $text
 *   The text to preprocess. This is a single piece of plain text extracted
 *   from between two HTML tags or from the search query. It will not contain
 *   any HTML entities or HTML tags.
 * @param string|null $langcode
 *   The language code for the language the text is in, if known. When this hook
 *   is invoked during search indexing, the language will most likely be known
 *   and passed in. This is left up to the search plugin;
 *   \Drupal\node\Plugin\Search\NodeSearch does pass in the node
 *   language. However, when this hook is invoked during searching, in order to
 *   let a module apply the same preprocessing to the search keywords and
 *   indexed text so they will match, $langcode will be NULL. A hook
 *   implementation can call the getCurrentLanguage() method on the
 *   'language_manager' service to determine the current language and act
 *   accordingly.
 *
 * @return string
 *   The text after preprocessing. Note that if your module decides not to
 *   alter the text, it should return the original text. Also, after
 *   preprocessing, words in the text should be separated by a space.
 *
 * @ingroup search
