Followup to #60216, fixing the formatting of
`transport.tcp.reuse_address` and clarifying some wording around the
distinction between the transport and HTTP layers.
Keepalive options are not well-documented (only in transport section, although also available at http and network level).

In #38333 and #38350 we moved away from the `discovery.zen` settings namespace
since these settings have an effect even though Zen Discovery itself is being
phased out. This change aligns the documentation and the names of related
classes and methods with the newly-introduced naming conventions.
Renames the following settings to remove the mention of `zen` in their names:
- `discovery.zen.hosts_provider` -> `discovery.seed_providers`
- `discovery.zen.ping.unicast.concurrent_connects` -> `discovery.seed_resolver.max_concurrent_resolvers`
- `discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts.resolve_timeout` -> `discovery.seed_resolver.timeout`
- `discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts` -> `discovery.seed_addresses`
This is related to #36652. In 7.0 we plan to deprecate a number of
settings that make reference to the concept of a tcp transport. We
mostly just have a single transport type now (based on tcp). Settings
should only reference tcp if they are referring to socket options. This
commit updates the settings in the docs. And removes string usages of
the old settings. Additionally it adds a missing remote compress setting
to the docs.
Values for the network.host setting can often contain a colon which is a
character that is considered special by YAML (these arise in IPv6
addresses and some of the special tags like ":ipv4"). As such, these
values need to be quoted or a YAML parser will be unhappy with
them. This commit adds a note to the docs regarding this.
This commit adds a note to the docs regarding explicilty setting a
publish host if the network.host setting results in multiple bind
addresses.

Currently we suggesting users create a Node (using NodeBuilder in 2.x) to have a client that is capable of keeping up-to-date information. This is generally a bad idea as it means elasticsearch has no control over eg max heap size or gc settings, and is also problematic for users because they must deal with dependency collisions (and in 2.x+ dependencies of elasticsearch itself).
A better alternative, and what we should document, is to run a local elasticsearch server using bin/elasticsearch, and then use the transport client to connect to that local node. This local connection is virtually free, and allows the client code to be completely isolated from the elasticsearch process. Plugins are then also easy to deal with: just install them in elasticsearch as usual.

This makes some minor improvements (does not fix all problems!)
It reorders unicast disco in elasticsearch.yml to be right after the network host,
for better locality.
It removes the warning (unreleased) about publish addresses, lets try to really discourage setting
that unless you need to (behind a proxy server). Most people should be fine with `network.host`
Finally it reorganizes the network docs page a bit:
We add a table of 4 "basic" settings at the very beginning:
* network.host
* discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts
* http.port
* transport.tcp.port
The first two being the most important, which addresses to bind and talk to, and the other two
being the port numbers.
The rest of the stuff I tried to simplify and reorder under "advanced" headers.
This is just a quick stab, I still think we need more effort into this thing, but we gotta start somewhere.
* Allow for multiple host specifications (e.g. _en0_,192.168.1.2,_site_).
* Add _site_ and _global_ scopes as counterparts to _local_.
* Warn on heuristic selection of publish address.
* Remove the arbitrary _non_loopback_ setting.
Closes#13954
When running in GCE platform, an instance has access to:
http://metadata.google.internal/computeMetadata/v1/instance/network-interfaces/0/ip
Which gives back the private IP address, for example `10.240.0.2`.
http://metadata.google.internal/computeMetadata/v1/instance/network-interfaces/0/externalIp
Gives back the public Ip address, for example `130.211.108.21`.
As we have for `ec2`, we can support new network host settings:
* `_gce:privateIp:X_`: The private IP address of the machine for a given network interface.
* `_gce:hostname_`: The hostname of the machine.
* `_gce_`: Same as `_gce:privateIp:0_` (recommended).
Closes#13605.
Closes#13590.
BTW resolveIfPossible now throws IOException so code is also updated for ec2 discovery and
some basic tests have been added.
With 2.0, we now bind to `localhost` by default instead of binding to the network card and use its IP address.
When the discovery plugin gets from AWS API the list of nodes that should form the cluster, this list is pinged then. But as each node is bound to `localhost`, ping does not get an answer and the node elects itself as the master node.
`network.host` must be set.
Closes#13589.
When elasticsearch is configured by interface (or default: loopback interfaces),
bind to all addresses on the interface rather than an arbitrary one.
If the publish address is not specified, default it from the bound addresses
based on the following sort ordering:
* ipv4/ipv6 (java.net.preferIPv4Stack, defaults to true)
* ordinary addresses
* site-local addresses
* link local addresses
* loopback addresses
One one address is published, and multicast is still always over ipv4: these
need to be future improvements.
