Retrieving hit group contents no longer works
It seems that since [this commit](https://github.com/INL/BlackLab/commit/fa8720487f8aee79ad8bd600ae98173e04abc4ec) BlackLab always launches a hitsWindow() search, even when there is a groupBy and viewGroup parameter, causing them to be ignored and group contents requests to return the entire (ungrouped) source hits.
