Describe the Bug

By default, the current site have the default values ​​applied to the ranking property of pagefind.
But not applied to the merged indexes, and that can let them have higher scores on search while having a worst content compared to the current site.

At first I was thinking of a bug in pagefind, which led me to open this issue: Pagefind/pagefind#796

But after digging my browser debugger for hours I seen that the merged indexes did not have ranking values at all. I quickly add the default value to them to test it, and everything comes back to a nominal behavior.
