docs: Update terminology from 'hybrid queries' to 'complex filtering'

[jeremyplichta]

Summary

This PR updates the documentation terminology to distinguish between:

• Complex filtering: Combining multiple filter types (tag, numeric, geo, text filters) - previously called 'hybrid queries'
• Hybrid search: The new FT.HYBRID command that combines text and vector search (HybridQuery/AggregateHybridQuery classes)

Changes

• Renamed docs/user_guide/02_hybrid_queries.ipynb to docs/user_guide/02_complex_filtering.ipynb
• Updated README.md to use 'complex filtering' terminology instead of 'hybrid queries'
• Updated docs/user_guide/index.md table of contents
• Updated notebook content to reflect the new terminology

Notes

• The HybridQuery and AggregateHybridQuery classes remain unchanged as they correctly refer to the FT.HYBRID command which combines text and vector search
• The 11_advanced_queries.ipynb notebook correctly documents hybrid search using the FT.HYBRID command
• This change improves clarity by reserving 'hybrid search' for the specific FT.HYBRID functionality introduced in Redis 8.4.0

Testing

• Documentation changes only, no code changes
• Verified all file references are updated consistently

Pull request overview

This PR updates documentation terminology to clearly distinguish between "complex filtering" (combining multiple filter types like tag, numeric, geo, and text) and "hybrid search" (the FT.HYBRID command that combines text and vector search). This improves clarity by reserving "hybrid search" for the specific Redis functionality introduced in Redis 8.4.0.

Changes:

• Renamed documentation file from 02_hybrid_queries.ipynb to 02_complex_filtering.ipynb to reflect the new terminology
• Updated all documentation references from "hybrid queries" to "complex filtering" across README.md, user guide index, and notebook content
• Preserved the correct naming of HybridQuery/AggregateHybridQuery classes which properly refer to the FT.HYBRID command

@claude Can you also make sure the README has Hybrid Search and Complex Filtering separated in the list of links?

I'll help ensure the README properly separates Hybrid Search and Complex Filtering in the links section.

Todo List

• Read current README.md to understand the structure
• Identify the links section that needs separation
• Update README to properly separate Hybrid Search and Complex Filtering links
• Commit changes (push failed due to permissions)

Changes Made

I successfully updated the README to properly separate Hybrid Search and Complex Filtering:

1. Added "Hybrid Search" as a separate capability in the capabilities table (line 35):

   • Hybrid Search: Combine text and vector search
   • Complex Filtering: Combine multiple filter types (already existed)

2. Added hybrid search documentation link (line 221):

   • Added link to 11_advanced_queries.html alongside the existing complex filtering link
   • Now reads: "Read more about building complex filtering queries and hybrid search."

This properly distinguishes between:

• Complex Filtering: Combining multiple filter types (tag, numeric, geo, text filters) - documented in 02_complex_filtering.ipynb
• Hybrid Search: The FT.HYBRID command that combines text and vector search (HybridQuery/AggregateHybridQuery classes) - documented in 11_advanced_queries.ipynb

Note: The commit was created locally but the push failed due to GitHub Actions permissions. You'll need to manually push the changes or grant the appropriate permissions.
