Remove minimum required characters for fuzzy search if no trigram is used

Mario de la Ossa requested to merge 40379-CJK-search-min-chars into master

What does this MR do?

Issue: #40379 (closed)

When not using trigram indexes (when using a CTE fence) we don't incur a penalty searching for single-character fuzzy matches, so let's allow it!

This affects both issues and merge requests when searching under a group or project. It does not apply to global search, nor does it apply to searches initiated via the dashboard.

Does this MR meet the acceptance criteria?
