Description

When collapsing is specified on the undefined field then, the response returned has status 500 instead of 400.

This is because of wrapping of SolrException to RuntimeException
https://github.com/apache/lucene-solr/blob/master/solr/core/src/java/org/apache/solr/search/CollapsingQParserPlugin.java#L377

Then in request handler base, all RuntimeException are converted to SolrException with status 500
