Why these changes are being introduced:
Certain fields in the Hold dashboard, which are generated via convenience
methods and not stored in the db, were defined as Field::String. Because
Field::String is searchable by default, this caused the dashboard search
to break when it tried to query nonexistent columns.
Relevant ticket(s):
https://mitlibraries.atlassian.net/browse/ETD-304
How this addresses that need:
This changes the offending fields to Field::Text, which are not
searchable by default.
Side effects of this change:
status. I added thesis title as another searchable field, since there
aren't many Hold model fields that are searchable in administrate.
end of the querystring (e.g., 'active:'), due to some weirdness with
how collection filters work in administrate.
