We recently fixed timeout handling in the suggest phase. A test failure on SearchTimeoutIT surfaced an issue with the current approach. In case partial results are allowed, it may happen that some shards time out while executing the suggest phase and some don't. SearchPhaseController assumes that if one shard has suggest results, all of the other shards will have suggest results too. We could address that assertion and check is the search timed out, instead this commit changes timeout handling in the suggest phase to return an empty suggestion instead of null. This seems appropriate in terms of providing some results and makes the assertion about non null suggestions in SearchPhaseController happy. Relates to elastic#122357 Closes elastic#122548
