Deployer search-index should respect redirects

See original GitHub issue

If you use the --update option when you run the search-index (bulk uploading to Elasticsearch), we need to respect redirects too.

If we don’t re-create the Elasticsearch index every 24h, we might end up with 2 documents that contain almost the same content but spread across its old URL and its new URL.

an option to avoid downtime while doing a full recreation of the index would be to use an index alias for the reading usage of elasticsearch in the search endpoint. The script would create a new index (probably with the date of the build in the index name), index all new content in it. Then it would recreate the alias to point to the new index. And then it can delete the old index which is not used anymore.

This way, there is no downtime. While the new index is populated, the search endpoint are still working, as they are still seeing the old data (as the alias still points to the old index at that point).
