If you currently run the demo without Recommend, the popup doesn't display because the recommend index isn't found. Since Recommend is complex to setup, I propose to not rely on it by default, so anyone can run the demo more easily. This PR uses the same approach than #31 to fetch the most popular `brand` facets from the search results. I'm also leaving the recommend code commented to give pointer about how to integrate Recommend. Note: since our demo index is not fully trained, this approach actually works better: - the current demo displays `Lacy-D`, `Arlene` and `Lacy-S` - locally I now get `Apple`, `Sony`, `Lacy-D` and `Garmin` --- SFCC-390

The
getAlgoliaFacetsfunction requires the targeted facet to be searchable.Since it's not a requirement for our SFRA cartridge, if people try the demo on their existing index, they would get the following error and the search results wouldn't appear:
Algolia has a way to get the facets and their count that doesn't require to have searchable facets: https://www.algolia.com/doc/guides/managing-results/refine-results/faceting/#retrieving-facets
This PR uses this method to retrieve the facets.
The
resultsobject contains the following object:[{ "facets": { "__primary_category.1": { "Mens > Clothing": 490, "Womens > Accessories": 91, // ... } }, // ... }]The
transformResponsefunction transform it into a sorted array of{ label: int, count: int }objects, like thegetAlgoliaFacetswas doing.SFCC-388
