Dedicated search nodes

Currently, Atlas Search (mongot) is collocated with Atlas (mongod) on the same database deployment. Today, I have to size their workload based on both search and database requirements, which introduces the possibility of resource contention between their database and search deployment. I'd like to scale my search deployment independently of my database deployment.

    Dedicated search nodes have been delivered for GCP and AWS.  Azure will ship soon.

    Today, Atlas Search runs on all nodes of your cluster. I would like to limit the nodes that queries run on so I can isolate my transactional workload from my search workload.
