Now that we properly fixed the ability to set the queue size on the index / bulk thread pool, we should actually set them to a somehow reasonable value to protect from users potentially overflowing our system.
I suggest defaults to be 50 for bulk, and 200 for indexing.
Also, set the thread pool for get, which we should set (in a similar value to a "read" queue size we have today).

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.
Closes#3819
Stats can be retrieved on a per-feature / per-component basis including the fields
they apply to. This commit add support for a 'completion' flag to include statistics
for the complition feature as well as 'completion_fields' to only
include certain fields into the returned statistics.
To disambiguate between 'fielddata' and 'completion' fields this commit
uses 'fields' as the default inclusion filter for stats fields only used
if not dedicated '[completion|fielddata]_fields' paramter is provided.
Relates to #3522
Add a dedicated suggest thread pool for the suggest API. With the new completion suggest type, which is purely CPU bounded, it makes more sense to have a dedicated thread pool for suggest compared to having it share the search thread pool and "competing" against other search operations.

Refresh flag in optimize is problematic, since the shards refresh is allowed to execute on is different compared to the optimize shards. In order to do optimize and then refresh, they should be executed as separate APIs when needed.
closes#3690
Refresh flag in flush is problematic, since the shards refresh is allowed to execute on is different compared to the flush shards. In order to do flush and then refresh, they should be executed as separate APIs when needed.
closes#3689
/_template shows: No handler found for uri [/_template] and method [GET]
It would make sense to list the templates as they are listed in the /_cluster/state call.
Closes#2532.
The clear scroll api allows clear all resources associated with a `scroll_id` by deleting the `scroll_id` and its associated SearchContext.
Closes#3657
Now with have proper exit codes for elasticsearch plugin manager (see #3463), we can add a silent mode to plugin manager.
```sh
bin/plugin --install karmi/elasticsearch-paramedic --silent
```
Closes#3628.
