Adds a 'text analysis overview' page to the analysis topic docs.
The goals of this page are:
* Concisely summarize the analysis process while avoiding in-depth concepts, tutorials, or API examples
* Explain why analysis is important, largely through highlighting problems with full-text searches missing analysis
* Highlight how analysis can be used to improve search results
The Analysis docs mention including a default analyzer in the index settings. However, no example snippet is included.
This adds an example snippet that users can easily copy and adjust.
This PR adds per-field metadata that can be set in the mappings and is later
returned by the field capabilities API. This metadata is completely opaque to
Elasticsearch but may be used by tools that index data in Elasticsearch to
communicate metadata about fields with tools that then search this data. A
typical example that has been requested in the past is the ability to attach
a unit to a numeric field.
In order to not bloat the cluster state, Elasticsearch requires that this
metadata be small:
- keys can't be longer than 20 chars,
- values can only be numbers or strings of no more than 50 chars - no inner
arrays or objects,
- the metadata can't have more than 5 keys in total.
Given that metadata is opaque to Elasticsearch, field capabilities don't try to
do anything smart when merging metadata about multiple indices, the union of
all field metadatas is returned.
Here is how the meta might look like in mappings:
```json
{
"properties": {
"latency": {
"type": "long",
"meta": {
"unit": "ms"
}
}
}
}
```
And then in the field capabilities response:
```json
{
"latency": {
"long": {
"searchable": true,
"aggreggatable": true,
"meta": {
"unit": [ "ms" ]
}
}
}
}
```
When there are no conflicts, values are arrays of size 1, but when there are
conflicts, Elasticsearch includes all unique values in this array, without
giving ways to know which index has which metadata value:
```json
{
"latency": {
"long": {
"searchable": true,
"aggreggatable": true,
"meta": {
"unit": [ "ms", "ns" ]
}
}
}
}
```

#43007 restructured the SQL REST API docs so they display across several pages.
This updates up a reference that assumes a single page in the "Paginating through a large response" section. It also reformats a tip for the Kibana console.

The docs/reference/redirects.asciidoc file stores a list of relocated or
deleted pages for the Elasticsearch Reference documentation.
This prunes several older redirects that are no longer needed.
If `geo_point fields` are multi-valued, using `geo_centroid` as a
sub-agg to `geohash_grid` could result in centroids outside of bucket
boundaries.
This adds a related warning to the geo_centroid agg docs.
We have about 800 `ObjectParsers` in Elasticsearch, about 700 of which
are final. This is *probably* the right way to declare them because in
practice we never mutate them after they are built. And we certainly
don't change the static reference. Anyway, this adds `final` to these
parsers.
I found the non-final parsers with this:
```
diff \
<(find . -type f -name '*.java' -exec grep -iHe 'static.*PARSER\s*=' {} \+ | sort) \
<(find . -type f -name '*.java' -exec grep -iHe 'static.*final.*PARSER\s*=' {} \+ | sort) \
2>&1 | grep '^<'
```
Adds a `force` parameter to the delete data frame analytics
request. When `force` is `true`, the action force-stops the
jobs and then proceeds to the deletion. This can be used in
order to delete a non-stopped job with a single request.

* Docs: Refine note about `after_key`
I was curious about composite aggregations, specifically I wanted to
know how to write a composite aggregation that had all of its buckets
filtered out so you *had* to use the `after_key`. Then I saw that we've
declared composite aggregations not to work with pipelines in #44180. So
I'm not sure you *can* do that any more. Which makes the note about
`after_key` inaccurate. This rejiggers that section of the docs a little
so it is more obvious that you send the `after_key` back to us. And so
it is more obvious that you should *only* use the `after_key` that we
give you rather than try to work it out for yourself.

The cat nodes API performs a `ClusterStateAction` then a `NodesInfoAction`.
Today it accepts the `?local` parameter and passes this to the
`ClusterStateAction` but this parameter has no effect on the `NodesInfoAction`.
This is surprising, because `GET _cat/nodes?local` looks like it might be a
completely local call but in fact it still depends on every node in the
cluster.
This commit deprecates the `?local` parameter on this API so that it can be
removed in 8.0.
Relates #50088
PR #44238 changed several links related to the Elasticsearch search request body API. This updates several places still using outdated links or anchors.
This will ultimately let us remove some redirects related to those link changes.
The docs/reference/redirects.asciidoc file stores a list of relocated or
deleted pages for the Elasticsearch Reference documentation.
This prunes several older redirects that are no longer needed and
don't require work to fix broken links in other repositories.
The additional change to the original PR (#49657), is that `org.elasticsearch.client.cluster.RemoteConnectionInfo` now parses the initial_connect_timeout field as a string instead of a TimeValue instance.
The reason that this is needed is because that the initial_connect_timeout field in the remote connection api is serialized for human consumption, but not for parsing purposes.
Therefore the HLRC can't parse it correctly (which caused test failures in CI, but not in the PR CI
:( ). The way this field is serialized needs to be changed in the remote connection api, but that is a breaking change. We should wait making this change until rest api versioning is introduced.

Percentile aggregations are non-deterministic. A percentile aggregation
can produce different results even when using the same data.
Based on [this discuss post][0], the non-deterministic property stems
from processes in Lucene that can affect the order in which docs are
provided to the aggregation.
This adds a warning stating that the aggregation is non-deterministic
and what that means.

* Add ILM histore store index (#50287)
* Add ILM histore store index
This commit adds an ILM history store that tracks the lifecycle
execution state as an index progresses through its ILM policy. ILM
history documents store output similar to what the ILM explain API
returns.
An example document with ALL fields (not all documents will have all
fields) would look like:
```json
{
"@timestamp": 1203012389,
"policy": "my-ilm-policy",
"index": "index-2019.1.1-000023",
"index_age":123120,
"success": true,
"state": {
"phase": "warm",
"action": "allocate",
"step": "ERROR",
"failed_step": "update-settings",
"is_auto-retryable_error": true,
"creation_date": 12389012039,
"phase_time": 12908389120,
"action_time": 1283901209,
"step_time": 123904107140,
"phase_definition": "{\"policy\":\"ilm-history-ilm-policy\",\"phase_definition\":{\"min_age\":\"0ms\",\"actions\":{\"rollover\":{\"max_size\":\"50gb\",\"max_age\":\"30d\"}}},\"version\":1,\"modified_date_in_millis\":1576517253463}",
"step_info": "{... etc step info here as json ...}"
},
"error_details": "java.lang.RuntimeException: etc\n\tcaused by:etc etc etc full stacktrace"
}
```
These documents go into the `ilm-history-1-00000N` index to provide an
audit trail of the operations ILM has performed.
This history storage is enabled by default but can be disabled by setting
`index.lifecycle.history_index_enabled` to `false.`
Resolves#49180
* Make ILMHistoryStore.putAsync truly async (#50403)
This moves the `putAsync` method in `ILMHistoryStore` never to block.
Previously due to the way that the `BulkProcessor` works, it was possible
for `BulkProcessor#add` to block executing a bulk request. This was bad
as we may be adding things to the history store in cluster state update
threads.
This also moves the index creation to be done prior to the bulk request
execution, rather than being checked every time an operation was added
to the queue. This lessens the chance of the index being created, then
deleted (by some external force), and then recreated via a bulk indexing
request.
Resolves#50353

This is a spinoff of #48130 that generalizes the proposal to allow early termination with the composite aggregation when leading sources match a prefix or the entire index sort specification.
In such case the composite aggregation can use the index sort natural order to early terminate the collection when it reaches a composite key that is greater than the bottom of the queue.
The optimization is also applicable when a query other than match_all is provided. However the optimization is deactivated for sources that match the index sort in the following cases:
* Multi-valued source, in such case early termination is not possible.
* missing_bucket is set to true
* Update remote cluster stats to support simple mode (#49961)
Remote cluster stats API currently only returns useful information if
the strategy in use is the SNIFF mode. This PR modifies the API to
provide relevant information if the user is in the SIMPLE mode. This
information is the configured addresses, max socket connections, and
open socket connections.
* Send hostname in SNI header in simple remote mode (#50247)
Currently an intermediate proxy must route conncctions to the
appropriate remote cluster when using simple mode. This commit offers
a additional mechanism for the proxy to route the connections by
including the hostname in the TLS SNI header.
* Rename the remote connection mode simple to proxy (#50291)
This commit renames the simple connection mode to the proxy connection
mode for remote cluster connections. In order to do this, the mode specific
settings which we namespaced by their mode (ex: sniff.seed and
proxy.addresses) have been reverted.
* Modify proxy mode to support a single address (#50391)
Currently, the remote proxy connection mode uses a list setting for the
proxy address. This commit modifies this so that the setting is
proxy_address and only supports a single remote proxy address.
The freeze index API docs state that frozen indices are blocked for
write operations.
While this implies frozen indices are read-only, it does not explicitly
use the term "read-only", which is found in other docs, such as the
force merge docs.
This adds the "ready-only" term to the freeze index API docs as well
as other clarification.
The `filter` rule is not allowed on the top-level of the query, so removing it
from the list of allowed rules. Where it can be nested inside other rules, those
rules already mention it.
Docker bypasses the Uncomplicated Firewall (UFW) on Linux by editing the `iptables` config directly, which leads to the exposure of port 9200, even if you blocked it via UFW.
This adds a warning along with work-arounds to the docs.

Users often mistakenly map numeric IDs to numeric datatypes. However,
this is often slow for the `term` and other term-level queries.
The "Tune for search speed" docs includes advice for mapping numeric
IDs to `keyword` fields. However, this tip is not included in the
`numeric` or `keyword` field datatype doc pages.
This rewords the tip in the "Tune for search speed" docs, relocates it
to the `numeric` field docs, and reuses it using tagged regions.
For 7.x and earlier branches, `_cat/repositories` API requests require a
repository name.
This removes an erroneous request example without a repository name
added with a8e0275.
Lucene 8.4 added support for "CONTAINS", therefore in this commit those
changes are integrated in Elasticsearch. This commit contains as well a
bug fix when querying with a geometry collection with "DISJOINT" relation.

The example snippets in the percentile rank agg docs use a test dataset
named `latency`, which is generated from docs/gradle.build.
At some point the dataset and example snippets were updated, but the
text surrounding the snippets was not. This means the text and the
example snippets shown no longer match up.
This corrects that by changing the snippets using /TESTRESPONSE magic comments.
* CSV ingest processor (#49509)
This change adds new ingest processor that breaks line from CSV file into separate fields.
By default it conforms to RFC 4180 but can be tweaked.

As we discussed in #36371, interval notation is confusing to some users. This makes the intention clearer by just explaining inclusivity and exclusivity in the docs.
Removes a reference to shadow replicas from the cat shards API docs
and a comment in cluster/routing/UnassignedInfo.java.
Shadow replicas were removed with #23906.
This adds a new `randomize_seed` for regression and classification.
When not explicitly set, the seed is randomly generated. One can
reuse the seed in a similar job in order to ensure the same docs

The current snippets in the synced flush docs can cause conflicts with
other background syncs, such as the global checkpoint sync or retention
lease sync, in the docs tests.
This skips tests for those snippets to avoid conflicts.
In the shape query docs, the index mapping snippet uses the "geometry"
shape field mapping. However, the doc index snippet uses the "location"
property.
This changes the "location" property to "geometry". It also adds a
comment containing the search result snippet. This should prevent
similar issues in the future.
This commit changes the recommended repository file for rpm based
systems to be disabled by default. This is a safer practice so upgrades

Adds documentation for the `minimum_should_match` parameter to the `bool` query docs. Includes docs for the default values:

The "Restore any snapshots as required" step is a trap: it's somewhere between
tricky and impossible to restore multiple clusters into a single one.
Also add a note about configuring discovery during a rolling upgrade to
proscribe any rare cases where you might accidentally autobootstrap during the
upgrade.
When the enrich processor appends enrich data to an incoming document,
it adds a `target_field` to contain the enrich data.
This `target_field` contains both the `match_field` AND `enrich_fields`
specified in the enrich policy.
Previously, this was reflected in the documented example but not
explicitly stated. This adds several explicit statements to the docs.
Reindex sort never gave a guarantee about the order of documents being
indexed into the destination, though it could give a sense of locality
of source data.
It prevents us from doing resilient reindex and other optimizations and
it has therefore been deprecated.
Related to #47567
This rewrites long sort as a `DistanceFeatureQuery`, which can
efficiently skip non-competitive blocks and segments of documents.
Depending on the dataset, the speedups can be 2 - 10 times.
The optimization can be disabled with setting the system property
`es.search.rewrite_sort` to `false`.
Optimization is skipped when an index has 50% or more data with
the same value.
Optimization is done through:
1. Rewriting sort as `DistanceFeatureQuery` which can
efficiently skip non-competitive blocks and segments of documents.
2. Sorting segments according to the primary numeric sort field(#44021)
This allows to skip non-competitive segments.
3. Using collector manager.
When we optimize sort, we sort segments by their min/max value.
As a collector expects to have segments in order,
we can not use a single collector for sorted segments.
We use collectorManager, where for every segment a dedicated collector
will be created.
4. Using Lucene's shared TopFieldCollector manager
This collector manager is able to exchange minimum competitive
score between collectors, which allows us to efficiently skip
the whole segments that don't contain competitive scores.
5. When index is force merged to a single segment, #48533 interleaving
old and new segments allows for this optimization as well,
as blocks with non-competitive docs can be skipped.

This change adds a dynamic cluster setting named `indices.id_field_data.enabled`.
When set to `false` any attempt to load the fielddata for the `_id` field will fail

fielddata usage on this field for future versions but it will be set to `true` when backporting
to 7x. When the setting is set to true (manually or by default in 7x) the loading will also issue
a deprecation warning since we want to disallow fielddata entirely when https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/issues/26472

The breaking changes cover the removal of TLSv1 from the default
protocols, but assume that users who need to retain TLSv1 support will
understand all the places where they may used it.

example) an LDAP server is using TLSv1.
This change explicitly lists all the places where TLS protocols may
need to be configured.

The categorization job wizard in the ML UI will use this
information when showing the effect of the chosen categorization
analyzer on a sample of input.
This commit replaces the _estimate_memory_usage API with
a new API, the _explain API.
The API consolidates information that is useful before
creating a data frame analytics job.
It includes:
- memory estimation
- field selection explanation
Memory estimation is moved here from what was previously
calculated in the _estimate_memory_usage API.
Field selection is a new feature that explains to the user
whether each available field was selected to be included or
not in the analysis. In the case it was not included, it also
explains the reason why.

This commit enhances the required pipeline functionality by changing it
so that default/request pipelines can also be executed, but the required
pipeline is always executed last. This gives users the flexibility to
execute their own indexing pipelines, but also ensure that any required

change the name of required pipelines to final pipelines.

* Switches titles to use "n-gram" throughout.
* Fixes a typo in the edge n-gram tokenizer docs
* Adds an explicit anchor for the `index.max_ngram_diff` setting
All document scores are positive 32-bit floating point numbers. However, this
wasn't previously documented.
This can result in surprising behavior, such as precision loss, for users when
customizing scores using the function score query.
This commit updates an existing admonition in the function score query docs to
document the 32-bits precision limit. It also updates the search API reference
docs to note that `_score` is a 32-bit float.
Currently the `token_chars` setting in both `edgeNGram` and `ngram` tokenizers
only allows for a list of predefined character classes, which might not fit
every use case. For example, including underscore "_" in a token would currently
require the `punctuation` class which comes with a lot of other characters.
This change adds an additional "custom" option to the `token_chars` setting,
which requires an additional `custom_token_chars` setting to be present and
which will be interpreted as a set of characters to inlcude into a token.
Closes#25894
Previously, DATEDIFF for minutes and hours was doing a
