Remove index audit output type (#37707)
This commit removes the Index Audit Output type, following its deprecation
in 6.7 by 8765a31d4e6770. It also adds the migration notice (settings notice).

In general, the problem with the index audit output is that event indexing
can be slower than the rate with which audit events are generated,
especially during the daily rollovers or the rolling cluster upgrades.
In this situation audit events will be lost which is a terrible failure situation
for an audit system.
Besides of the settings under the `xpack.security.audit.index` namespace, the
`xpack.security.audit.outputs` setting has also been deprecated and will be
removed in 7. Although explicitly configuring the logfile output does not touch
any deprecation bits, this setting is made redundant in 7 so this PR deprecates
it as well.

Permission for restricted indices (#37577)
This grants the capability to grant privileges over certain restricted
indices (.security and .security-6 at the moment).
It also removes the special status of the superuser role.

IndicesPermission.Group is extended by adding the `allow_restricted_indices`
boolean flag. By default the flag is false. When it is toggled, you acknowledge
that the indices under the scope of the permission group can cover the
restricted indices as well. Otherwise, by default, restricted indices are ignored
when granting privileges, thus rendering them hidden for authorization purposes.
This effectively adds a confirmation "check-box" for roles that might grant
privileges to restricted indices.

The "special status" of the superuser role has been removed and coded as
any other role:
```
new RoleDescriptor("superuser",
    new String[] { "all" },
    new RoleDescriptor.IndicesPrivileges[] {
        RoleDescriptor.IndicesPrivileges.builder()
            .indices("*")
            .privileges("all")
            .allowRestrictedIndices(true)
// this ----^
            .build() },
            new RoleDescriptor.ApplicationResourcePrivileges[] {
                RoleDescriptor.ApplicationResourcePrivileges.builder()
                    .application("*")
                    .privileges("*")
                    .resources("*")
                    .build()
            },
            null, new String[] { "*" },
    MetadataUtils.DEFAULT_RESERVED_METADATA,
    Collections.emptyMap());
```
In the context of the Backup .security work, this allows the creation of a
"curator role" that would permit listing (get settings) for all indices
(including the restricted ones). That way the curator role would be able to 
ist and snapshot all indices, but not read or restore any of them.

Update the default for include_type_name to false. (#37285)
* Default include_type_name to false for get and put mappings.

* Default include_type_name to false for get field mappings.

* Add a constant for the default include_type_name value.

* Default include_type_name to false for get and put index templates.

* Default include_type_name to false for create index.

* Update create index calls in REST documentation to use include_type_name=true.

* Some minor clean-ups around the get index API.

* In REST tests, use include_type_name=true by default for index creation.

* Make sure to use 'expression == false'.

* Clarify the different IndexTemplateMetaData toXContent methods.

* Fix FullClusterRestartIT#testSnapshotRestore.

* Fix the ml_anomalies_default_mappings test.

* Fix GetFieldMappingsResponseTests and GetIndexTemplateResponseTests.

We make sure to specify include_type_name=true during xContent parsing,
so we continue to test the legacy typed responses. XContent generation
for the typeless responses is currently only covered by REST tests,
but we will be adding unit test coverage for these as we implement
each typeless API in the Java HLRC.

This commit also refactors GetMappingsResponse to follow the same appraoch
as the other mappings-related responses, where we read include_type_name
out of the xContent params, instead of creating a second toXContent method.
This gives better consistency in the response parsing code.

* Fix more REST tests.

* Improve some wording in the create index documentation.

* Add a note about types removal in the create index docs.

* Fix SmokeTestMonitoringWithSecurityIT#testHTTPExporterWithSSL.

* Make sure to mention include_type_name in the REST docs for affected APIs.

* Make sure to use 'expression == false' in FullClusterRestartIT.

* Mention include_type_name in the REST templates docs.

Security: remove SSL settings fallback (#36846)
This commit removes the fallback for SSL settings. While this may be
seen as a non user friendly change, the intention behind this change
is to simplify the reasoning needed to understand what is actually
being used for a given SSL configuration. Each configuration now needs
to be explicitly specified as there is no global configuration or
fallback to some other configuration.

Closes #29797

Security Audit includes HTTP method for requests (#37322)
Adds another field, named "request.method", to the structured logfile audit.
This field is present for all events associated with a REST request (not a
transport request) and the value is one of GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, OPTIONS,
HEAD, PATCH, TRACE and CONNECT.

Update transport docs and settings for changes (#36786)
This is related to #36652. In 7.0 we plan to deprecate a number of
settings that make reference to the concept of a tcp transport. We
mostly just have a single transport type now (based on tcp). Settings
should only reference tcp if they are referring to socket options. This
commit updates the settings in the docs. And removes string usages of
the old settings. Additionally it adds a missing remote compress setting
to the docs.

Enhance Invalidate Token API (#35388)
This change:

- Adds functionality to invalidate all (refresh+access) tokens for all users of a realm
- Adds functionality to invalidate all (refresh+access)tokens for a user in all realms
- Adds functionality to invalidate all (refresh+access) tokens for a user in a specific realm
- Changes the response format for the invalidate token API to contain information about the 
   number of the invalidated tokens and possible errors that were encountered.
- Updates the API Documentation

After back-porting to 6.x, the `created` field will be removed from master as a field in the 
response

Make hits.total an object in the search response (#35849)
This commit changes the format of the `hits.total` in the search response to be an object with
a `value` and a `relation`. The `value` indicates the number of hits that match the query and the
`relation` indicates whether the number is accurate (in which case the relation is equals to `eq`)
or a lower bound of the total (in which case it is equals to `gte`).
This change also adds a parameter called `rest_total_hits_as_int` that can be used in the
search APIs to opt out from this change (retrieve the total hits as a number in the rest response).
Note that currently all search responses are accurate (`track_total_hits: true`) or they don't contain
`hits.total` (`track_total_hits: true`). We'll add a way to get a lower bound of the total hits in a
follow up (to allow numbers to be passed to `track_total_hits`).

There is a catch, that even if enabling `emit_request_body`, which should

This folk knowledge is herein imprinted.

Include realm type in Security Realm setting keys (#30241)
This moves all Realm settings to an Affix definition.
However, because different realm types define different settings
(potentially conflicting settings) this requires that the realm type
become part of the setting key.

Thus, we now need to define realm settings as:

    xpack.security.authc.realms:
      file.file1:
        order: 0

      native.native1:
        order: 1

- This is a breaking change to realm config
- This is also a breaking change to custom security realms (SecurityExtension)

Support PKCS#11 tokens as keystores and truststores (#34063)
This enables Elasticsearch to use the JVM-wide configured
PKCS#11 token as a keystore or a truststore for its TLS configuration.
The JVM is assumed to be configured accordingly with the appropriate
Security Provider implementation that supports PKCS#11 tokens.
For the PKCS#11 token to be used as a keystore or a truststore for an
SSLConfiguration, the .keystore.type or .truststore.type must be
explicitly set to pkcs11 in the configuration.
The fact that the PKCS#11 token configuration is JVM wide implies that
there is only one available keystore and truststore that can be used by TLS
configurations in Elasticsearch.
The PIN for the PKCS#11 token can be set as a truststore parameter in
Elasticsearch or as a JVM parameter ( -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword).

The basic goal of enabling PKCS#11 token support is to allow PKCS#11-NSS in
FIPS mode to be used as a FIPS 140-2 enabled Security Provider.
