⚡️(backend) remove content from Document serializer when asked

The frontend can fetch the retrieve endpoint just for having the title.
Everytime, the content is added and to get the content, a request is
made to the s3 bucket. A query string `without_content` can be used, if
the value is `true` then the content is not added (and not also not
fetch).
