Since #45136, we use soft-deletes instead of translog in peer recovery.
There's no need to retain extra translog to increase a chance of
operation-based recoveries. This commit ignores the translog retention
policy if soft-deletes is enabled so we can discard translog more
quickly.
Backport of #45473
Relates #45136
Today we recover a replica by copying operations from the primary's translog.
However we also retain some historical operations in the index itself, as long
as soft-deletes are enabled. This commit adjusts peer recovery to use the
operations in the index for recovery rather than those in the translog, and
ensures that the replication group retains enough history for use in peer
recovery by means of retention leases.

Backport of #45136 to 7.x.
this commit removes usage of the deprecated
constructor with a single argument and no Writeable.Reader.
The purpose of this is to reduce the boilerplate necessary for
properly implementing a new action, as well as reducing the
chances of using the incorrect super constructor while classes
are being migrated to Writeable
relates #34389.
This commit adds constructors to AcknolwedgedRequest subclasses to
implement Writeable.Reader, and ensures all future subclasses implement
the same.
