Create a REST API for a note-keeping application using Node.js, Express.js, and MongoDB. The application should allow users to perform CRUD operations on notes.

1. Each note should have:
   • A title
   • Content
   • A creation date
2. Implement the following endpoints:
   • GET /notes: Retrieve all notes.
   • POST /notes: Add a new note.
   • DELETE /notes/:id: Delete a specific note using its ID.
   • PUT /notes/:id: Update a specific note using its ID.
3. Connect your application to a MongoDB database and use Mongoose for object modeling.
4. Handle potential errors gracefully. If an error occurs, the API should return a suitable status code and a descriptive error message.

1. Implement a search feature: GET /notes/search?query=YOUR_QUERY that allows users to search notes by their title or content.
2. Paginate the GET /notes endpoint to return a limited number of notes at once, with the ability to fetch the next "page" of notes.
