Start using Advanced Search in merge request list
Problem to solve
Currently, merge request list page (https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests) often timeouts if you add a search term.
Proposal
We should start utilizing Advanced Search (if it's possible) for the merge request list. We can start with a simple case when a user provides a search term, no filters, and a sort option we support.
It seems that creating a wrapper for MergeRequestsFinder is unfeasible given that all finders are required to return a scope, and we can't really achieve that given how pagination in Elasticsearch works.
