Test substring fallback on a text-indexed field, document estimator params

A text index cannot serve `substring`, so on a field that has only a text
index the condition runs through the payload fallback; only strict mode may
reject it. Pin that in the OpenAPI suite and reword the strict-mode unit
test comment, which read as if the text index itself blocked the query.

Also spell out what `keys` and `postings` mean in `keys_union_cardinality`.
