This gives better coverage and consistency with the scripting APIs, by
whitelisting the primary search scripting API classes and using them instead
of only Map and List methods.
For example, accessing fields can now be done with `.value` instead of `.0`
because `getValue()` is whitelisted. For now, access to a document's fields in
this way (loads) are fast-pathed in the code, to avoid dynamic overhead.
Access to geo fields and geo distance functions is now supported.
TODO: date support (e.g. whitelist ReadableDateTime methods as a start)
TODO: improve docs (like expressions and groovy have for document's fields)
TODO: remove fast-path hack

Painless: add fielddata accessors (.value/.values/.distance()/etc)
Adds infrastructure so `gradle :docs:check` will extract tests from
snippets in the documentation and execute the tests. This is included
in `gradle check` so it should happen on CI and during a normal build.
By default each `// AUTOSENSE` snippet creates a unique REST test. These
tests are executed in a random order and the cluster is wiped between
each one. If multiple snippets chain together into a test you can annotate
all snippets after the first with `// TEST[continued]` to have the
generated tests for both snippets joined.
Snippets marked as `// TESTRESPONSE` are checked against the response
of the last action.
See docs/README.asciidoc for lots more.
Closes#12583. That issue is about catching bugs in the docs during build.
This catches *some* bugs in the docs during build which is a good start.
* Reorganize scripting documentation
* Further changes to tidy up scripting docs
Closes#18116
* Add note about .lat/lon potentially returning null
* Added .value to expressions example
* Fixed two bad ASCIIDOC links
