[DOCS] Update get.asciidoc

Updated to not mislead the reader that the data is actually gone when a document is updated. For example if you have 100GB of docs and update each one you'll only be able to access 100GB of the data, but there would theoretically be 200GB of doc data.

Closes #10375

entirely new document. The old version of the document doesnt disappear
immediately, although you wont be able to access it. Elasticsearch cleans up
deleted documents in the background as you continue to index more data.
