Handle error case for search in Document.API?

[Anderssorby]

Regarding this line:

elastic/lib/elastic/document/api.ex

Line 190 in 1e2c7a3

{:ok, 200, %{"hits" => %{"hits" => hits}}} = result

Could we handle the error case for the Document.API.search as well? If for example the index doesn't exist it creates a nasty exception.

Something like:

case result do
          {:error, code, error} ->
            {:error, code, error}
          {:ok, 200, %{"hits" => %{"hits" => hits}}} ->
            Enum.map(hits, fn %{"_source" => source, "_id" => id} ->
              into_struct(id, source)
            end)
end

I can make a PR. Then you can have the option to deal with the errors without breaking existing code.
