The tribes feature allowed to create a tribe node that can act as a federated client across multiple clusters.
The tribe node configuration looks something like this:
```
tribe.t1.cluster.name: cluster1
tribe.t2.cluster.name: cluster2
```
The configuration above configure connections to 2 clusters, named `t1`, `t2`. It creates a "node" client to each (so by default, above, multicast discovery is used). The settings for each node client is extracted from the `tribe.[tribe_name]` prefix.
The way the tribe node works is by merging the cluster state from each cluster, and creating a merged view of all clusters. This means all operations work the same, distributed search, suggest, percolation, indexing, ... .
The merged view drops conflicted indices and picks one of them if there are 2 indices with the same name across multiple clusters.
By default, read and write operations are allowed. Master level read operations (cluster state for example), require setting the local flag to true (since there is no elected master). Master level write operations are not allowed (create index, ...).
The tribe node can be configured to block write operations `tribe.blocks.write` to `true`, and metadata operations by setting `tribe.blocks.metadata` to `true`.

When set to false a new strict mode of parsing is employed which
a) does not permit numbers to be passed as JSON strings in quotes
b) rejects numbers with fractions that are passed to integer, short or long fields.

Put mapping now supports either of these formats:
POST foo/doc/_mapping
{
"doc": {
"_routing": {"required": true},
"properties": {
"body": {"type": "string"}
}
}
}
or
POST foo/doc/_mapping
{
"_routing": {"required": true},
"properties": {
"body": {"type": "string"}
}
}

Java Builder apis drop old “len” methods in favour of new “length”
Rest APIs support both old “len: and new “length” forms using new ParseField class to a) provide compiler-checked consistency between Builder and Parser classes and
b) a common means of handling deprecated syntax in the DSL.
Documentation and rest specs only document the new “*length” forms

If the path_type is set to `just_name` in a multi_field typed field and that field is updated (for example another multi field is added) then if the path isn't specified again the path_type isn't taken into account and full path names are generated.
`standard_html_strip` and `pattern` analyzer support stopwords which are
set to the default `english` stopwords by default. Those analyzers
should not use stopwords by default since they are language neutral

`min_doc_count` is the minimum number of hits that a term or histogram key
should match in order to appear in the response.
`min_doc_count=0` replaces `compute_empty_buckets` for histograms and will
behave exactly like facets' `all_terms=true` for terms aggregations.

When upgrading to ES 1.0 the existing mappings with a multi-field type automatically get replaced to a core field with the new `fields` option.
If a `multi_field` type-ed field doesn't have a main / default field, a default field will be chosen for the multi fields syntax. The new main field type
will be equal to the first `multi_field` fields' field or type string if no fields have been configured for the `multi_field` field and in both cases
the default index will not be indexed (`index=no` is set on the default field).
If a `multi_field` typed field has a default field, that field will replace the `multi_field` typed field.

============
The default unit for measuring distances is *MILES* in most cases. This commit moves ES
over to the *International System of Units* and make it work on a default which relates
to *METERS* . Also the current structures of the `GeoBoundingBox Filter` changed in
order to define the *Bounding* by setting abitrary corners.
Distances
---------
Since the default unit for measuring distances has changed to a default unit
`DistanceUnit.DEFAULT` relating to *meters*, the **REST API** has changed at the
following places:
* `ScriptDocValues.factorDistance()` returns *meters* instead of *miles*
* `ScriptDocValues.factorDistanceWithDefault()` returns *meters* instead of *miles*
* `ScriptDocValues.arcDistance()` returns *meters* instead of *miles*
one might use `ScriptDocValues.arcDistanceInMiles()`
* `ScriptDocValues.arcDistanceWithDefault()` returns *meters* instead of *miles*
* `ScriptDocValues.distance()` returns *meters* instead of *miles*
one might use `ScriptDocValues.distanceInMiles()`
* `ScriptDocValues.distanceWithDefault()` returns *meters* instead of *miles*
one might use `ScriptDocValues.distanceInMilesWithDefault()`
* `GeoDistanceFilter` default unit changes from *kilometers* to *meters*
* `GeoDistanceRangeFilter` default unit changes from *miles* to *meters*
* `GeoDistanceFacet` default unit changes from *miles* to *meters*
Geo Bounding Box Filter
-----------------------
The naming of the GeoBoundingBoxFilter properties allows to set arbitrary corners
(see #4084) namely `top_right`, `top_left`, `bottom_right` and `bottom_left`. This
change also includes the fields `topRight` and `bottomLeft` Also it is be possible to
set the single values by using just `top`, `bottom`, `left` and `right` parameters.
Closes#4515, #4084
Also changes the response format of that section to:
```
"open_file_descriptors": {
"min": 200,
"max": 346,
"avg": 273
}

Multi data path config support writes a file to a data location based on the available size (by default). There is a Lucene file called segments.gen that has the same name, and only in that case, we need to make sure we alway write it to the same data location, otherwise, the index will have multiple segments.gen files, and the shard can seem to be corrupted.
The message if this case happens is that segments_xxx file was not found, in which case, a find for segments.gen can yield multiple files. Deleting the segments.gen files will cause the shard to recover properly (as its an extra protection layer to resolve the segments header by Lucene)
Make sure the segments.gen file is writtne to the same directory every time
