Now that there is some versioning of the database, we can safely update the index settings and mappings on startup of the Photon server. This allows to use the same database dump for different versions of Photon that might use different search analyzers. The synonym analyser in #581 already applied a similar tactics.
I've added some hints for developers in CONTRIBUTING.md how to handle settings and mapping changes.
