Now that doc values are the default for fielddata, specialized in-memory
formats are becoming an esoteric option. This commit removes such formats:
- `fst` on string fields,
- `compressed` on geo points.
I also removed documentation and tests that the fielddata cache is shared if
you change the format, since this is only true for in-memory fielddata formats
(given that for doc values, the caching is done directly in Lucene).
We now have a very useful annotation to mark features or parameters as
experimental. Let's use it! This commit replaces some custom text warnings with
this annotation and adds this annotation to some existing features/parameters:
- inner_hits (unreleased yet)
- terminate_after (released in 1.4)
- per-bucket doc count errors in the terms agg (released in 1.4)
I also tagged with this annotation settings which should either be not needed
(like the ability to evict entries from the filter cache based on time) or that
are too deep into the way that Elasticsearch works like the Directory
implementation or merge settings.

This particular note was about fielddata filtering but could cause confusion
that fields that have doc values enabled cannot be used for filtering (as in
a `filtered_query`).
Adds a breaker for request BigArrays, which are used for parent/child
queries as well as some aggregations. Certain operations like Netty HTTP
responses and transport responses increment the breaker, but will not
trip.
This also changes the output of the nodes' stats endpoint to show the
parent breaker as well as the fielddata and request breakers.
There are a number of new settings for breakers now:
`indices.breaker.total.limit`: starting limit for all memory-use breaker,
defaults to 70%
`indices.breaker.fielddata.limit`: starting limit for fielddata breaker,
defaults to 60%
`indices.breaker.fielddata.overhead`: overhead for fielddata breaker
estimations, defaults to 1.03
(the fielddata breaker settings also use the backwards-compatible
setting `indices.fielddata.breaker.limit` and
`indices.fielddata.breaker.overhead`)
`indices.breaker.request.limit`: starting limit for request breaker,
defaults to 40%
`indices.breaker.request.overhead`: request breaker estimation overhead,
defaults to 1.0
The breaker service infrastructure is now generic and opens the path to
adding additional circuit breakers in the future.

This adds the field data circuit breaker, which is used to estimate
the amount of memory required to load field data before loading it. It
then raises a CircuitBreakingException if the limit is exceeded.
It is configured with two parameters:
`indices.fielddata.cache.breaker.limit` - the maximum number of bytes
of field data to be loaded before circuit breaking. Defaults to
`indices.fielddata.cache.size` if set, unbounded otherwise.
`indices.fielddata.cache.breaker.overhead` - a contast for all field
data estimations to be multiplied with before aggregation. Defaults to
1.03.
Both settings can be configured dynamically using the cluster update
settings API.
This commits add doc values support to geo point using the exact same approach
as for numeric data: geo points for a given document are stored uncompressed
and sequentially in a single binary doc values field.

This commit changes field data configuration updates so that they are
immediately taken into account for loading new segments. The way it works
is that field data configuration is now cached separately from the field
data cache, meaning that it is now possible to clear the field data
configuration from IndexFieldDataService while the cache will stay around. On
the next time that Elasticsearch will reload field data configuration, it will
check if there is already a cache entry, and reuse it if it exists.
To disable field data loading, all that is required is to change the field
data format to "none" (supported by all field data types) using the update
mapping API. Elasticsearch will then refuse to load field data on any new
segment, but field data which has been loaded on the previous segments will
remain available. So you need to clear the field data cache in order to
reclaim memory (otherwise memory will be reclaimed slower, as segments get
merged).

This commit allows for using Lucene doc values as a backend for field data,
moving the cost of building field data from the refresh operation to indexing.
In addition, Lucene doc values can be stored on disk (partially, or even
entirely), so that memory management is done at the operating system level
(file-system cache) instead of the JVM, avoiding long pauses during major
collections due to large heaps.
So far doc values are supported on numeric types and non-analyzed strings
(index:no or index:not_analyzed). Under the hood, it uses SORTED_SET doc values
which is the only type to support multi-valued fields. Since the field data API
set is a bit wider than the doc values API set, some operations are not
supported:
- field data filtering: this will fail if doc values are enabled,
- field data cache clearing, even for memory-based doc values formats,
- getting the memory usage for a specific field,
- knowing whether a field is actually multi-valued.
This commit also allows for configuring doc-values formats on a per-field basis
similarly to postings formats. In particular the doc values format of the
_version field can be configured through its own field mapper (it used to be
handled in UidFieldMapper previously).
Closes#3806
* Merged segments are now warmed-up at the end of the merge operation instead
of _refresh, so that _refresh doesn't pay the price for the warm-up of merged
segments, which is often higher than flushed segments because of their size.
* Even when no _warmer is registered, some basic warm-up of the segments is
performed: norms, doc values (_version). This should help a bit people who
forget to register warmers.
* Eager loading support for the parent id cache and field data: when one
can't predict what terms will be present in the index, it is tempting to use
a match_all query in a warmer, but in that case, query execution might not be
much faster than field data loading so having a warmer that only loads field
data without running a query can be useful.
