There are different bucket aggregators, each with a different "bucketing" strategy. Some define a single bucket, some
define fixed number of multiple buckets, and others dynamically create the buckets during the aggregation process.
NOTE: The maximum number of buckets allowed in a single response is limited by a dynamic cluster
setting named `search.max_buckets`. It defaults to 10,000, requests that try to return more than
