Since #31251, we use the default distribution to test docs. With this
distribution, the cat thread-pool response will include the ccr
thread-pool. This commit adjusts /_cat/thread_pool doc to include ccr.

This switches the docs tests from the `oss-zip` distribution to the
`zip` distribution so they have xpack installed and configured with the
default basic license. The goal is to be able to merge the
`x-pack/docs` directory into the `docs` directory, marking the x-pack
docs with some kind of marker. This is the first step in that process.
This also enables `-Dtests.distribution` support for the `docs`
directory so you can run the tests against the `oss-zip` distribution
with something like
```
./gradlew -p docs check -Dtests.distribution=oss-zip
```
We can set up Jenkins to run both.

This commit renames the bulk thread pool to the write thread pool. This
is to better reflect the fact that the underlying thread pool is used to
execute any document write request (single-document index/delete/update
requests, and bulk requests).
With this change, we add support for fallback settings
thread_pool.bulk.* which will be supported until 7.0.0.
We also add a system property so that the display name of the thread
pool remains as "bulk" if needed to avoid breaking users.
Now that single-document indexing requests are executed on the bulk
thread pool the index thread pool is no longer needed. This commit
removes this thread pool from Elasticsearch.
We want to remove the index thread pool as it is no longer needed since
single-document indexing requests are executed as bulk requests
now. Analyze requests are also executed on the index thread pool though
and they need a thread pool to execute on. The bulk thread does not seem
like the right thread pool, let us keep that thread pool conceptually
for bulk requests and free for bulk requests. None of the existing
thread pools make sense for analyze requests either. The generic thread
pool would be a terrible choice since it has an unbounded queue and that
is a bad idea for user-facing APIs. This commit introduces a small by
default (size=1, queue_size=16) thread pool for analyze requests.
Today we report thread pool info using a common object. This means that
we use a shared set of terminology that is not consistent with the
terminology used to the configure thread pools. This holds in particular
for the minimum and maximum number of threads in the thread pool where
we use the following terminology:
thread pool info | fixed | scaling
min core size
max max size
A previous change addressed this for the nodes info API. This commit
changes the display of thread pool info in the cat thread pool API too
to be dependent on the type of the thread pool so that we can align the
terminology in the output of thread pool info with the terminology used
to configure a thread pool.
All of the snippets in our docs marked with `// TESTRESPONSE` are
checked against the response from Elasticsearch but, due to the
way they are implemented they are actually parsed as YAML instead
of JSON. Luckilly, all valid JSON is valid YAML! Unfurtunately
that means that invalid JSON has snuck into the exmples!
This adds a step during the build to parse them as JSON and fail
the build if they don't parse.
But no! It isn't quite that simple. The displayed text of some of
these responses looks like:
```
{
...
"aggregations": {
"range": {
"buckets": [
{
"to": 1.4436576E12,
"to_as_string": "10-2015",
"doc_count": 7,
"key": "*-10-2015"
},
{
"from": 1.4436576E12,
"from_as_string": "10-2015",
"doc_count": 0,
"key": "10-2015-*"
}
]
}
}
}
```
Note the `...` which isn't valid json but we like it anyway and want
it in the output. We use substitution rules to convert the `...`
into the response we expect. That yields a response that looks like:
```
{
"took": $body.took,"timed_out": false,"_shards": $body._shards,"hits": $body.hits,
"aggregations": {
"range": {
"buckets": [
{
"to": 1.4436576E12,
"to_as_string": "10-2015",
"doc_count": 7,
"key": "*-10-2015"
},
{
"from": 1.4436576E12,
"from_as_string": "10-2015",
"doc_count": 0,
"key": "10-2015-*"
}
]
}
}
}
```
That is what the tests consume but it isn't valid JSON! Oh no! We don't
want to go update all the substitution rules because that'd be huge and,
ultimately, wouldn't buy much. So we quote the `$body.took` bits before
parsing the JSON.
Note the responses that we use for the `_cat` APIs are all converted into
regexes and there is no expectation that they are valid JSON.

Today, when listing thread pools via the cat thread pool API, thread
pools are listed in a column-delimited format. This is unfriendly to
command-line tools, and inconsistent with other cat APIs. Instead,
thread pools should be listed in a row-delimited format.
Additionally, the cat thread pool API is limited to a fixed list of
thread pools that excludes certain built-in thread pools as well as all
custom thread pools. These thread pools should be available via the cat
thread pool API.
This commit improves the cat thread pool API by listing all thread pools
(built-in or custom), and by listing them in a row-delimited
format. Finally, for each node, the output thread pools are sorted by
thread pool name.

Warmers are now barely useful and will be removed in 3.0. Note that this only
removes the warmer API and query-based warmers. We still have warmers internally
for eg. global ordinals.
Close#15607
This adds an API for force merging lucene segments. The `/_optimize` API is now
deprecated and replaced by the `/_forcemerge` API, which has all the same flags
and action, just a different name.
Today, Elasticsearch has a separate merge thread pool checking once
per second (by default) if any merges are necessary, but this is no
longer necessary since we can and do now tell Lucene's
ConcurrentMergeScheduler never to "hard pause" threads when merges
fall behind, since we do our own index throttling.
This change goes back to letting Lucene launch merges as needed, and
removes these two expert settings:
index.merge.force_async_merge
index.merge.async_interval
Now merges kick off immediately instead of waiting up to 1 second
before running.
Closes#8643
By default active, rejected and queue thread statistics are included for the index, bulk and search thread pool.
Other thread statistics of other thread pools can be included via the `h` query string parameter.
