David Pilato 62d8b7ab97 Docs: rolling upgrade process seems incorrect
When reading the [rolling upgrade process](http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/setup-upgrade.html#rolling-upgrades), you can see that we wrote:

* disable allocation
* upgrade node1
* upgrade node2
* upgrade node3
* ...
* enable allocation

That won't work as after a node has been removed and restarted, no shard will be allocated anymore.
So closing node2 and remaining nodes, won't help to serve index and search request anymore.

We should write:

* disable allocation
* upgrade node1
* enable allocation
* wait for shards being recovered on node1
* disable allocation
* upgrade node2
* enable allocation
* wait for shards being recovered on node2
* disable allocation
* upgrade node3
* enable allocation
* wait for shards being recovered on node3
* disable allocation
* ...
* enable allocation

I think this documentation update should go in 1.3, 1.4, 1.x and master branches.

Closes #8218
Closes #7973.

Simon Willnauer d82a434d10 [STORE] Make a hybrid directory default using `mmapfs` and `niofs`
`mmapfs` is really good for random access but can have sideeffects if
memory maps are large depending on the operating system etc. A hybrid
solution where only selected files are actually memory mapped but others
mostly consumed sequentially brings the best of both worlds and
minimizes the memory map impact.
This commit mmaps only the `dvd` and `tim` file for fast random access
on docvalues and term dictionaries.

Holger Hoffstätte f5c9bf6f0f Update JNA to latest version
Updating to this version allows to configure a special JNA directory,
in case the /tmp directory is mounted with the noexec option, as JNA
extracts some data and tries to execute parts of it.

Also updated documentation to clarify mlockall and memory settings as well
as pointing to the new jna.tmpdir system property.

Alexander Reelsen 811b7d7d78 Do not start packages on installation
The reason to not start packages on installation is to allow to configure
them before starting up (setting heap, cluster.name etc)

Also the documentation was updated in order to show, which statements need
to be executed.
In addition, these statements are also printed out when the package is
installed, depending on whether chkconfig, system or update-rc.d is used.
