StaticPerRows to fetch PER ENTITY as the ranking candidate pool — decoupled from the global topK
budget (bug C3). Previously topK / 10, which capped every FTS entity to a tiny arbitrary
slice regardless of how many entities matched. The engine still trims the fused set to topK.
Public + static so a deployment can tune it at startup. Mirrors EntitySearchProvider.
Get the metadata provider used by this search provider, falling back to the global default.
Set the metadata provider used by this search provider for entity lookups.
Check and cache whether this provider is operational. Called after Initialize(). Override for providers that need to verify external dependencies (e.g., vector indexes exist, API keys are valid).
The default implementation returns true (always available).
The user context for availability checks
Initialize the provider with configuration from the SearchProvider entity. Called once during SearchEngine.Config(). Override to perform provider-specific setup (e.g., connecting to external APIs using credentials).

StaticGetEnumerate every search provider currently registered with ClassFactory under
BaseSearchProvider. Designed for the SearchScope form's provider dropdown
(P5.5) — populates the dropdown from this single call rather than hardcoding
a list, so any ClassFactory-registered provider (including third-party ones)
shows up automatically.
Each entry includes the driver-class registration key (writes into
SearchProvider.DriverClass) and the SourceType the provider implements.
Sorted by DriverClass for stable UI ordering.
Provides full-text search using the MJ Metadata.FullTextSearch() method. Always available since it relies on the standard MJ provider infrastructure.
