The variable `search_fields` enables a search box on the admin change list page. This way you can search within your models in the admin site. (ref: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.1/ref/contrib/admin/#django.contrib.admin.ModelAdmin.search_fields) Without this change Django returns an error when adding `search_fields` to a `mongo_admin.DocumentAdmin` class. This error is due to usage of the wrong Q operator, which does not correspong to MongoDB search engine: (Django original code: https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/django/contrib/admin/options.py#L1025 uses django.db.models.Q instead of mongo_engine's mongoengine.queryset.visitor.Q). This change is just adding lines https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/django/contrib/admin/options.py#L984-L1030 here, configuring the right Q operator.
