==== `search_quote_analyzer`
The `search_quote_analyzer` setting allows you to specify an analyzer for phrases, this is particularly useful when dealing with disabling
stop words for phrase queries.
To disable stop words for phrases a field utilising three analyzer settings will be required:
1. An `analyzer` setting for indexing all terms including stop words
2. A `search_analyzer` setting for non-phrase queries that will remove stop words
3. A `search_quote_analyzer` setting for phrase queries that will not remove stop words

<1> `my_analyzer` analyzer which tokens all terms including stop words
<2> `my_stop_analyzer` analyzer which removes stop words
<3> `analyzer` setting that points to the `my_analyzer` analyzer which will be used at index time
<4> `search_analyzer` setting that points to the `my_stop_analyzer` and removes stop words for non-phrase queries
<5> `search_quote_analyzer` setting that points to the `my_analyzer` analyzer and ensures that stop words are not removed from phrase queries
<6> Since the query is wrapped in quotes it is detected as a phrase query therefore the `search_quote_analyzer` kicks in and ensures the stop words
are not removed from the query. The `my_analyzer` analyzer will then return the following tokens [`the`, `quick`, `brown`, `fox`] which will match one
of the documents. Meanwhile term queries will be analyzed with the `my_stop_analyzer` analyzer which will filter out stop words. So a search for either
`The quick brown fox` or `A quick brown fox` will return both documents since both documents contain the following tokens [`quick`, `brown`, `fox`].
Without the `search_quote_analyzer` it would not be possible to do exact matches for phrase queries as the stop words from phrase queries would be
removed resulting in both documents matching.
