Description

When using the database driver, it's possible to select the lookup strategy (LIKE, prefix or full text) but that must be hard-coded in the model and it can't be changed. Depending on the content and language, one of the strategies works better then the others but it's not possible to change that. For packages offering models with search capabilities, it's impossible to change the decision of the package maintainer afterwards.

Steps To Reproduce

#[SearchUsingPrefix(['id', 'email'])]
#[SearchUsingFullText(['bio'])]
public function toSearchableArray(): array

Would you accept a PR that uses model methods to get the prefix and full text columns (with options) instead?
