This removes the AB test for autocomplete on the all content finder and makes it permanent.

⚠️ This should be merged when a decision is taken to go fully live with autocomplete.

@leenagupte leenagupte requested a review from kevindew December 9, 2024 16:43
Autocomplete uses a denylist to stop certain terms from serving
suggestions. The process to update the denylist is very manual and
developer heavy.

It might be difficult to update the denylist over the holiday period. In
that situation the decision might be taken to temporarily turn off
autocomplete entirely.

An environment variable is used to determine whether or not to render
search with autocomplete. The value of this variable will be applied
globally across all applications that use site search.

This environment variable will either exist, or not. The value of it
doesn't really matter. If it exists, then search with autocomplete
should be disabled. A value of "1" is used in the tests, as that is the
default value being set in the helm charts.

See alphagov/govuk-helm-charts#2832
