v1.16: Experimental: Multimodal search

[guimachiavelli]

v1.16 introduces a new experimental feature, multimodal. When activated, it enables two new embedder settings, indexingFragments and searchFragments, and one new search parameter, media. Used together, they make it possible to generate embeddings based on image instead of text. They also allow users to perform searches based on base64 images, image URLs, or text.

Tasks

• Update experimental feature overview table
• Update error codes reference
• Update Settings reference > Embedders with indexingFragments and searchFragments
• Update Search reference with media
