Summary of Changes

Improves the search behavior of the Fancy Select field by allowing matches to be found anywhere within option labels, not only near the beginning of the text
This is achieved by increasing the Fuse.js search distance parameter used by the component. The change preserves the existing fuzzy search behavior while making long labels searchable by words appearing later in the string.
No other functionality or configuration is modified

Testing Instructions

Go to Content and then Articles and then New Article
In the Category field, ensure there are categories with long names
Open the dropdown and type a word that appears toward the end of one of the category names
Repeat with words from the beginning, middle, and end of different labels
Verify that results are returned correctly in all cases

Actual result BEFORE applying this Pull Request

Search results may not appear when the search term matches text located later in the label

Expected result AFTER applying this Pull Request

Search matches are found regardless of the term’s position within the label
