It adds notes about:
- how preference can help optimize cache usage
- the fact that too many replicas can hurt search performance due to lower
utilization of the filesystem cache
- how index sorting can improve _source compression
- how always putting fields in the same order in documents can improve _source
compression

* Upgrade icu4j for the ICU analysis plugin to 59.1
Lucene upgraded to 59.1 so we should use the same.
Closes#21425
* Add breaking change for the icu upgrade
This snapshot has faster range queries on range fields (LUCENE-7828), more
accurate norms (LUCENE-7730) and the ability to use fake term frequencies
(LUCENE-7854).
Expose the experimental simplepattern and
simplepatternsplit tokenizers in the common
analysis plugin. They provide tokenization based
on regular expressions, using Lucene's
deterministic regex implementation that is usually
faster than Java's and has protections against
creating too-deep stacks during matching.
Both have a not-very-useful default pattern of the
empty string because all tokenizer factories must
be able to be instantiated at index creation time.
They should always be configured by the user
in practice.
Get mappings HEAD requests incorrectly return a content-length header of
0. This commit addresses this by removing the special handling for get
mappings HEAD requests, and just relying on the general mechanism that
exists for handling HEAD requests in the REST layer.

This commit adds back "id" as the key within a script to specify a
stored script (which with file scripts now gone is no longer ambiguous).
It also adds "source" as a replacement for "code". This is in an attempt
to normalize how scripts are specified across both put stored scripts and script usages, including search template requests. This also deprecates the old inline/stored keys.
This change removes the `postings` highlighter. This highlighter has been removed from Lucene master (7.x) because it behaves
exactly like the `unified` highlighter when index_options is set to `offsets`:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-7815
It also makes the `unified` highlighter the default choice for highlighting a field (if `type` is not provided).
The strategy used internally by this highlighter remain the same as before, it checks `term_vectors` first, then `postings` and ultimately it re-analyzes the text.
Ultimately it rewrites the docs so that the options that the `unified` highlighter cannot handle are clearly marked as such.
There are few features that the `unified` highlighter is not able to handle which is why the other highlighters (`plain` and `fvh`) are still available.
I'll open separate issues for these features and we'll deprecate the `fvh` and `plain` highlighters when full support for these features have been added to the `unified`.
This PR enables Ingest plugins to leverage processor-scoped REST

This commit refactors the query phase in order to be able
to automatically detect queries that can be early terminated.
If the index sort matches the query sort, the top docs collection is early terminated
on each segment and the computing of the total number of hits that match the query is delegated to a simple TotalHitCountCollector.
This change also adds a new parameter to the search request called `track_total_hits`.
It indicates if the total number of hits that match the query should be tracked.
If false, queries sorted by the index sort will not try to compute this information and
and will limit the collection to the first N documents per segment.
Aggregations are not impacted and will continue to see every document
even when the index sort matches the query sort and `track_total_hits` is false.

During package install on systemd-based systems, some sysctl settings
should be set (e.g. vm.max_map_count).
In some environments, changing sysctl settings plainly does not work;
previously a global environment variable named
ES_SKIP_SET_KERNEL_PARAMETERS was introduced to skip calling sysctl, but
this causes trouble for:
- configuration management systems, which usually cannot apply an env
var when running a package manager
- package upgrades, which will not have the env var set any more, and
thus leaving the package management system in a bad state (possibly
half-way upgraded, can be very hard to recover)
This removes the env var again and instead of calling systemd-sysctl
manually, tells systemd to restart the wrapper unit - which itself can
be masked by system administrators or management tools if it is known
that sysctl does not work in a given environment.
The restart is not silent on systems in their default configuration, but
is ignored if the unit is masked.

Some response classes in the java api expose both `getTook()` which returns a `TimeValue` and `getTookInMillis` which returns a `long` value. `getTook()` is enough as one can do `getTook().millis()` to obtain the same result as `getTookInMillis()`, which can be removed.
* Adds nodes usage API to monitor usages of actions
The nodes usage API has 2 main endpoints
/_nodes/usage and /_nodes/{nodeIds}/usage return the usage statistics
for all nodes and the specified node(s) respectively.
At the moment only one type of usage statistics is available, the REST
actions usage. This records the number of times each REST action class is
called and when the nodes usage api is called will return a map of rest
action class name to long representing the number of times each of the action
classes has been called.

* [x] Create usage service to store usage statistics
* [x] Record usage in REST layer
* [x] Add Transport Actions
* [x] Add REST Actions
* [x] Tests
* [x] Documentation
* Rafactors UsageService so counts are done by the handlers
* Fixing up docs tests
* Adds a name to all rest actions
* Addresses review comments
This commit adds a new bg_count field to the REST response of
SignificantTerms aggregations. Similarly to the bg_count that already
exists in significant terms buckets, this new bg_count field is set at
the aggregation level and is populated with the superset size value.

their own file since they also work with doc values and fielddata is on the way
out.

This commit adds a `doc_count` field to the response body of Matrix

Closes#23674
Adds a "magic" key to the yaml testing stash mostly for use with
documentation tests. When unstashing an object, `$_path` is the
path into the current position in the object you are unstashing.
This means that in docs tests you can use
`// TESTRESPONSEs/somevalue/$body.${_path}/` to mean "replace
`somevalue` with whatever is the response in the same position."
Compare how you must carefully mock out all the numbers in the profile

Currently a `delete document` request against a non-existing index actually **creates** this index.
With this change the `delete document` no longer creates the previously non-existing index and throws an `index_not_found` exception instead.
However as discussed in https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/pull/15451#issuecomment-165772026, if an external version is explicitly used, the current behavior is preserved and the index is still created and the document is marked for deletion.

This PR adds a new thread pool type: `fixed_auto_queue_size`. This thread pool
behaves like a regular `fixed` threadpool, except that every
`auto_queue_frame_size` operations (default: 10,000) in the thread pool,
[Little's Law](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little's_law) is calculated and
used to adjust the pool's `queue_size` either up or down by 50. A minimum and
maximum is taken into account also. When the min and max are the same value, a
regular fixed executor is used instead.
The `SEARCH` threadpool is changed to use this new type of thread pool. However,
the min and max are both set to 1000, meaning auto adjustment is opt-in rather
than opt-out.
Resolves#3890
In scripts (at least some of the languages), the terms dictionary and
postings can be access with the special _index variable. This is for
very advanced use cases which want to do their own scoring. The problem
is segment level statistics must be recomputed for every document.
Additionally, this is not friendly to the terms index caching as the
order of looking up terms should be controlled by lucene.
This change removes _index from scripts. Anyone using it can and should
instead write a Similarity plugin, which is explicitly designed to allow
doing the calculations needed for a relevance score.
closes#19359
Today when an index is `read-only` the index is also blocked from
being deleted which sometimes is undesired since in-order to make
changes to a cluster indices must be deleted to free up space. This is
a likely scenario in a hosted environment when disk-space is limited to switch
indices read-only but allow deletions to free up space.
Our strong recommendation is disabling swap over any other alternative
to avoid the JVM from landing on disk. This commit clarifies the docs in
this regard.
This commit documents how to write a `ScriptEngine` in order to use
expert internal apis, such as using Lucene directly to find index term
statistics. These documents prepare the way to remove both native

This commit adds support for histogram and date_histogram agg compound order by refactoring and reusing terms agg order code. The major change is that the Terms.Order and Histogram.Order classes have been replaced/refactored into a new class BucketOrder. This is a breaking change for the Java Transport API. For backward compatibility with previous ES versions the (date)histogram compound order will use the first order. Also the _term and _time aggregation order keys have been deprecated; replaced by _key.
Relates to #20003: now that all these aggregations use the same order code, it should be easier to move validation to parse time (as a follow up PR).
Relates to #14771: histogram and date_histogram aggregation order will now be validated at reduce time.
Closes#23613: if a single BucketOrder that is not a tie-breaker is added with the Java Transport API, it will be converted into a CompoundOrder with a tie-breaker.
Currently, the get snapshots API (e.g. /_snapshot/{repositoryName}/_all)
provides information about snapshots in the repository, including the
snapshot state, number of shards snapshotted, failures, etc. In order
to provide information about each snapshot in the repository, the call
must read the snapshot metadata blob (`snap-{snapshot_uuid}.dat`) for
every snapshot. In cloud-based repositories, this can be expensive,
both from a cost and performance perspective. Sometimes, all the user
wants is to retrieve all the names/uuids of each snapshot, and the
indices that went into each snapshot, without any of the other status
information about the snapshot. This minimal information can be
retrieved from the repository index blob (`index-N`) without needing to
read each snapshot metadata blob.
This commit enhances the get snapshots API with an optional `verbose`
parameter. If `verbose` is set to false on the request, then the get
snapshots API will only retrieve the minimal information about each
snapshot (the name, uuid, and indices in the snapshot), and only read
this information from the repository index blob, thereby giving users
the option to retrieve the snapshots in a repository in a more
cost-effective and efficient manner.
Closes#24288
Now that indices have a single type by default, we can move to the next step
and identify documents using their `_id` rather than the `_uid`.
One notable change in this commit is that I made deletions implicitly create
types. This helps with the live version map in the case that documents are
deleted before the first type is introduced. Otherwise there would be no way
to differenciate `DELETE index/foo/1` followed by `PUT index/foo/1` from
`DELETE index/bar/1` followed by `PUT index/foo/1`, even though those are
different if versioning is involved.
This commit adds support for indexing and searching a new ip_range field type. Both IPv4 and IPv6 formats are supported. Tests are updated and docs are added.
`_search_shards`API today only returns aliases names if there is an alias
filter associated with one of them. Now it can be useful to see which aliases
have been expanded for an index given the index expressions. This change also includes non-filtering aliases even without a filtering alias being present.
Adds CONSOLE to cross-cluster-search docs but skips them for testing
because we don't have a second cluster set up. This gets us the
`VIEW IN CONSOLE` and `COPY AS CURL` links and makes sure that they

Which is better than we had before.
Adds CONSOLE to the dynamic templates docs and ingest-node docs.

Today we go to heroic lengths to workaround bugs in the JDK or around
issues like BSD jails to get information about the underlying file
store. For example, we went to lengths to work around a JDK bug where
the file store returned would incorrectly report whether or not a path
is writable in certain situations in Windows operating
systems. Another bug prevented getting file store information on
Windows on a virtual drive on Windows. We no longer need to work
around these bugs, we could simply try to write to disk and let an I/O
exception arise if we could not write to the disk or take advantage of
the fact that these bugs are fixed in recent releases of the JDK
(e.g., the file store bug is fixed since 8u72). Additionally, we
collected information about all file stores on the system which meant
that if the user had a stale NFS mount, Elasticsearch could hang and
fail on startup if that mount point was not available. Finally, we
collected information through Lucene about whether or not a disk was a
spinning disk versus an SSD, information that we do not need since we
assume SSDs by default. This commit takes into consideration that we
simply do not need this heroic effort, we do not need information
about all file stores, and we do not need information about whether or
not a disk spins to greatly simplfy file store handling.

We want to upgrade to Lucene 7 ahead of time in order to be able to check whether it causes any trouble to Elasticsearch before Lucene 7.0 gets released. From a user perspective, the main benefit of this upgrade is the enhanced support for sparse fields, whose resource consumption is now function of the number of docs that have a value rather than the total number of docs in the index.
Some notes about the change:
- it includes the deprecation of the `disable_coord` parameter of the `bool` and `common_terms` queries: Lucene has removed support for coord factors
- it includes the deprecation of the `index.similarity.base` expert setting, since it was only useful to configure coords and query norms, which have both been removed
- two tests have been marked with `@AwaitsFix` because of #23966, which we intend to address after the merge
The docs don't clearly explain that the deleted doc count also comes from lucene.
IMHO, it is worth highlighting this information separately, as a Note.
Apart from that, there should be an official recommended alternative as well.
Today Elasticsearch allows default settings to be used only if the
actual setting is not set. These settings are trappy, and the complexity

which are maintainted to support packaging. A follow-up will remove

Now that we have incremental reduce functions for topN and aggregations
we can set the default for `action.search.shard_count.limit` to unlimited.
This still allows users to restrict these settings while by default we executed
across all shards matching the search requests index pattern.
_field_stats has evolved quite a lot to become a multi purpose API capable of retrieving the field capabilities and the min/max value for a field.
In the mean time a more focused API called `_field_caps` has been added, this enpoint is a good replacement for _field_stats since he can
retrieve the field capabilities by just looking at the field mapping (no lookup in the index structures).
Also the recent improvement made to range queries makes the _field_stats API obsolete since this queries are now rewritten per shard based on the min/max found for the field.
This means that a range query that does not match any document in a shard can return quickly and can be cached efficiently.
For these reasons this change deprecates _field_stats. The deprecation should happen in 5.4 but we won't remove this API in 6.x yet which is why
this PR is made directly to 6.0.
The rest tests have also been adapted to not throw an error while this change is backported to 5.4.

They needed to be updated now that Painless is the default and

I dropped the entire section about customizing the classloader
whitelists. In master this barely does anything (exposes more
things to expressions).
Before now ranges where forbidden, because the percolator query itself could get cached and then the percolator queries with now ranges that should no longer match, incorrectly will continue to match.
By disabling caching when the `percolator` is being used, the percolator can now correctly support range queries with now based ranges.
I think this is the right tradeoff. The percolator query is likely to not be the same between search requests and disabling range queries with now ranges really disabled people using the percolator for their use cases.
Also fixed an issue that existed in the percolator fieldmapper, it was unable to find forbidden queries inside `dismax` queries.
Closes#23859
While there are use-cases where a single-node is in production, there
are also use-cases for starting a single-node that binds transport to an
external interface where the node is not in production (for example, for
testing the transport client against a node started in a Docker
container). It's tricky to balance the desire to always enforce the
bootstrap checks when a node might be in production with the need for
the community to perform testing in situations that would trip the
bootstrap checks. This commit enables some flexibility for these
users. By setting the discovery type to "single-node", we disable the
bootstrap checks independently of how transport is bound. While this
sounds like a hole in the bootstrap checks, the bootstrap checks can
already be avoided in the single-node use-case by binding only HTTP but
not transport. For users that are genuinely in production on a
single-node use-case with transport bound to an external use-case, they
can set the system property "es.enable.bootstrap.checks" to force
running the bootstrap checks. It would be a mistake for them not to do
this.

In this example `field1` have the same type `text` across the requested indices `t`, `s`, `v`, `w`.
Conversely `field2` is defined with two conflicting types `keyword` and `long`.
Note that `_field_caps` does not treat this case as an error but rather return the list of unique types seen for this field.

All the docs for the `exists` query that aren't marked as `CONSOLE`

It also rewrites the text around `missing` query. Since it was

This commit clarifies the preference docs regarding the explanation of

This commit adds support for the pattern keyword marker filter in
Lucene. Previously, the keyword marker filter in Elasticsearch
supported specifying a keywords set or a path to a set of keywords.
This commit exposes the regular expression pattern based keyword marker
filter also available in Lucene, so that any token matching the pattern
specified by the `keywords_pattern` setting is excluded from being
stemmed by any stemming filters.
Closes#4877
As the query of a search request defaults to match_all,
calling _delete_by_query without an explicit query may
result in deleting all data.
In order to protect users against falling into that

setting of a query.
Closes#23629
This commit adds the boolean similarity scoring from Lucene to
Elasticsearch. The boolean similarity provides a means to specify that
a field should not be scored with typical full-text ranking algorithms,
but rather just whether the query terms match the document or not.
Boolean similarity scores a query term equal to its query boost only.
Boolean similarity is available as a default similarity option and thus
a field can be specified to have boolean similarity by declaring in its
mapping:
"similarity": "boolean"

The OpenJDK project provides early-access builds of upcoming

This is especially useful when we rewrite the query because the result of the rewrite can be very different on different shards. See #18254 for example.
* Add support for fragment_length in the unified highlighter
This commit introduce a new break iterator (a BoundedBreakIterator) designed for the unified highlighter
that is able to limit the size of fragments produced by generic break iterator like `sentence`.
The `unified` highlighter now supports `boundary_scanner` which can `words` or `sentence`.
The `sentence` mode will use the bounded break iterator in order to limit the size of the sentence to `fragment_length`.
When sentences bigger than `fragment_length` are produced, this mode will break the sentence at the next word boundary **after**
`fragment_length` is reached.
The reindex API is mature now, and we will work to maintain backwards

In SI units, "kilobyte" or "kB" would mean 1000 bytes, whereas "KiB" is

This commit adds a system property that enables end-users to explicitly
enforce the bootstrap checks, independently of the binding of the
transport protocol. This can be useful for single-node production
systems that do not bind the transport protocol (and thus the bootstrap
checks would not be enforced).

This commit adds the size of the cluster state to the response for the
get cluster state API call (GET /_cluster/state). The size that is
returned is the size of the full cluster state in bytes when compressed.
This is the same size of the full cluster state when serialized to
transmit over the network. Specifying the ?human flag displays the
compressed size in a more human friendly manner. Note that even if the
cluster state request filters items from the cluster state (so a subset
of the cluster state is returned), the size that is returned is the
compressed size of the entire cluster state.

This commit enforces the requirement of Content-Type for the REST layer and removes the deprecated methods in transport

While doing this, it turns out that there are many places where *Entity classes are used from the apache http client

explicitly have been added to forbidden apis to prevent more of these from entering our code base.

This commit brings the snapshot documentation in conformity
with the CONSOLE format, and fixes the docs so that the documentation
tests can be run against them.
When nested objects are present in the mappings, many queries get deoptimized
due to the need to exclude documents that are not in the right space. For
instance, a filter is applied to all queries that prevents them from matching
non-root documents (`+*:* -_type:__*`). Moreover, a filter is applied to all
child queries of `nested` queries in order to make sure that the child query
only matches child documents (`_type:__nested_path`), which is required by
`ToParentBlockJoinQuery` (the Lucene query behing Elasticsearch's `nested`
queries).
These additional filters slow down `nested` queries. In 1.7-, the cost was
somehow amortized by the fact that we cached filters very aggressively. However,
this has proven to be a significant source of slow downs since 2.0 for users
of `nested` mappings and queries, see #20797.
This change makes the filtering a bit smarter. For instance if the query is a
`match_all` query, then we need to exclude nested docs. However, if the query
is `foo: bar` then it may only match root documents since `foo` is a top-level
field, so no additional filtering is required.
Another improvement is to use a `FILTER` clause on all types rather than a
`MUST_NOT` clause on all nested paths when possible since `FILTER` clauses
are more efficient.
Here are some examples of queries and how they get rewritten:
```
"match_all": {}
```
This query gets rewritten to `ConstantScore(+*:* -_type:__*)` on master and
`ConstantScore(_type:AutomatonQuery {\norg.apache.lucene.util.automaton.Automaton@4371da44})`
with this change. The automaton is the complement of `_type:__*` so it matches
the same documents, but is faster since it is now a positive clause. Simplistic
performance testing on a 10M index where each root document has 5 nested
documents on average gave a latency of 420ms on master and 90ms with this change
applied.
```
"term": {
"foo": {
"value": "0"
}
}
```
This query is rewritten to `+foo:0 #(ConstantScore(+*:* -_type:__*))^0.0` on
master and `foo:0` with this change: we do not need to filter nested docs out
since the query cannot match nested docs. While doing performance testing in
the same conditions as above, response times went from 250ms to 50ms.
```
"nested": {
"path": "nested",
"query": {
"term": {
"nested.foo": {
"value": "0"
}
}
}
}
```
This query is rewritten to
`+ToParentBlockJoinQuery (+nested.foo:0 #_type:__nested) #(ConstantScore(+*:* -_type:__*))^0.0`
on master and `ToParentBlockJoinQuery (nested.foo:0)` with this change. The
top-level filter (`-_type:__*`) could be removed since `nested` queries only
match documents of the parent space, as well as the child filter
(`#_type:__nested`) since the child query may only match nested docs since the
`nested` object has both `include_in_parent` and `include_in_root` set to
`false`. While doing performance testing in the same conditions as above,
response times went from 850ms to 270ms.
This pull request reuses the typed_keys parameter added in #22965, but this time it applies it to suggesters. When set to true, the suggester names in the search response will be prefixed with a prefix that reflects their type.
This changes removes the SearchResponseListener that was used by the ExpandCollapseSearchResponseListener to expand collapsed hits.
The removal of SearchResponseListener is not a breaking change because it was never released.
This change also replace the blocking call in ExpandCollapseSearchResponseListener by a single asynchronous multi search request. The parallelism of the expand request can be set via CollapseBuilder#max_concurrent_group_searches
Closes#23048
This pull request adds a new parameter to the REST Search API named `typed_keys`. When set to true, the aggregation names in the search response will be prefixed with a prefix that reflects the internal type of the aggregation.
Here is a simple example:
```
GET /_search?typed_keys
{
"aggs": {
"tweets_per_user": {
"terms": {
"field": "user"
}
}
},
"size": 0
}
```
And the response:
```
{
"aggs": {
"sterms:tweets_per_user": {
...
}
}
}
```
This parameter is intended to make life easier for REST clients that could parse back the prefix and could detect the type of the aggregation to parse. It could also be implemented for suggesters.
This commit removes support for the `application/x-ldjson` Content-Type header as this was only used in the first draft
of the spec and had very little uptake. Additionally, the docs for bulk and msearch have been updated to specifically
call out ndjson and mention that the newline character may be preceded by a carriage return.
Finally, the bulk request handling of the carriage return has been improved to remove this character from the source.
Closes#23025
Elasticsearch v5.0.0 uses allocation IDs to safely allocate primary shards whereas prior versions of ES used a version-based mode instead. Elasticsearch v5 still has support for version-based primary shard allocation as it needs to be able to load 2.x shards. ES v6 can drop the legacy support.
Since `_all` is now deprecated and cannot be set for new indices, we should also
disallow any field that has the `include_in_all` parameter set.
Resolves#22923

Painless uses Ruby-like method dispatch (reciever type, method name,

Today either all nodes in the cluster connect to remote clusters of only nodes
that have remote clusters configured in their node config. To allow global remote
cluster configuration but restrict connections to a set of nodes in the cluster
this change adds a new setting `search.remote.connect` (defaults to `true`) to allow
to disable remote cluster connections on a per node basis.
This changes the way that replica failures are handled such that not all
failures will cause the replica shard to be failed or marked as stale.
In some cases such as refresh operations, or global checkpoint syncs, it is
"okay" for the operation to fail without the shard being failed (because no data
is out of sync). In these cases, instead of failing the shard we should simply
fail the operation, and, in the event it is a user-facing operation, return a
5xx response code including the shard-specific failures.
This was accomplished by having two forms of the `Replicas` proxy, one that is
for non-write operations that does not fail the shard, and one that is for write
operations that will fail the shard when an operation fails.

It was accidentally renamed `enabled_position_increment` in the cleanups

This commit removes the following queries and parameters (which were deprecated in 5.0):

* coerce, and ignore_malformed for GeoBoundingBoxQuery, GeoDistanceQuery, GeoPolygonQuery, and GeoDistanceSort
This change also removes the reference to the difference bewteen full name and index name.
They are always the same since 2.x and `name` does not refer anymore to `author.name` automatically.
A simple pattern must be used instead.
Remove redundant code that checks the field name twice.
This change adds a strict mode for xcontent parsing on the rest layer. The strict mode will be off by default for 5.x and in a separate commit will be enabled by default for 6.0. The strict mode, which can be enabled by setting `http.content_type.required: true` in 5.x, will require that all incoming rest requests have a valid and supported content type header before the request is dispatched. In the non-strict mode, the Content-Type header will be inspected and if it is not present or not valid, we will continue with auto detection of content like we have done previously.
The content type header is parsed to the matching XContentType value with the only exception being for plain text requests. This value is then passed on with the content bytes so that we can reduce the number of places where we need to auto-detect the content type.
As part of this, many transport requests and builders were updated to provide methods that
accepted the XContentType along with the bytes and the methods that would rely on auto-detection have been deprecated.
In the non-strict mode, deprecation warnings are issued whenever a request with body doesn't provide the Content-Type header.

GeoDistance query, sort, and scripts make use of a crazy GeoDistance enum for handling 4 different ways of computing geo distance: SLOPPY_ARC, ARC, FACTOR, and PLANE. Only two of these are necessary: ARC, PLANE. This commit removes SLOPPY_ARC, and FACTOR and cleans up the way Geo distance is computed.
Implemented by wrapping an array of reused `ModuleDateTime`s that
we grow when needed. The `ModuleDateTime`s are reused when we

Currently, stored scripts use a namespace of (lang, id) to be put, get, deleted, and executed. This is not necessary since the lang is stored with the stored script. A user should only have to specify an id to use a stored script. This change makes that possible while keeping backwards compatibility with the previous namespace of (lang, id). Anywhere the previous namespace is used will log deprecation warnings.
The new behavior is the following:
When a user specifies a stored script, that script will be stored under both the new namespace and old namespace.
Take for example script 'A' with lang 'L0' and data 'D0'. If we add script 'A' to the empty set, the scripts map will be ["A" -- D0, "A#L0" -- D0]. If a script 'A' with lang 'L1' and data 'D1' is then added, the scripts map will be ["A" -- D1, "A#L1" -- D1, "A#L0" -- D0].
When a user deletes a stored script, that script will be deleted from both the new namespace (if it exists) and the old namespace.
Take for example a scripts map with {"A" -- D1, "A#L1" -- D1, "A#L0" -- D0}. If a script is removed specified by an id 'A' and lang null then the scripts map will be {"A#L0" -- D0}. To remove the final script, the deprecated namespace must be used, so an id 'A' and lang 'L0' would need to be specified.
When a user gets/executes a stored script, if the new namespace is used then the script will be retrieved/executed using only 'id', and if the old namespace is used then the script will be retrieved/executed using 'id' and 'lang'

Adds "Appending B. Painless API Reference", a reference of all classes
and methods available from Painless. Removes links to java packages
because they contain methods that we don't expose and don't contain
methods that we do expose (the ones in Augmentation). Instead this
generates a list of every class and every exposed method using the same
type information available to the
interpreter/compiler/whatever-we-call-it. From there you can jump to
the relevant docs.
Right now you build all the asciidoc files by running
```
gradle generatePainlessApi
```
These files are expected to be committed because we build the docs
without running `gradle`.
Also changes the output of `Debug.explain` so that it is easy to
search for the class in the generated reference documentation.
You can also run it in an IDE safely if you pass the path to the
directory in which to generate the docs as the first parameter. It'll
blow away the entire directory an recreate it from scratch so be careful.
And then you can build the docs by running something like:
```
../docs/build_docs.pl --out ../built_docs/ --doc docs/reference/index.asciidoc --open
```
That is, if you have checked out https://github.com/elastic/docs in
`../docs`. Wait a minute or two and your browser will pop open in with
all of Elasticsearch's reference documentation. If you go to
`http://localhost:8000/painless-api-reference.html` you can see this
list. Or you can get there by following the links to `Modules` and
`Scripting` and `Painless` and then clicking the link in the paragraphs
below titled `Appendix B. Painless API Reference`.
I like having these in asciidoc because we can deep link to them from the
rest of the guide with constructs like
`<<painless-api-reference-Object-hashCode-0>>` and
`<<painless-api-reference->>` and we get link checking. Then the only
brittle link maintenance bit is the link generation for javadoc. Which
sucks. But I think it is important that we link to the methods directly
so they are easy to find.

* Add top hits collapsing to search request
The field collapsing is done with a custom top docs collector that "collapse" search hits with same field value.
The distributed aspect is resolve using the two passes that the regular search uses. The first pass "collapse" the top hits, then the coordinating node merge/collapse the top hits from each shard.
```
GET _search
{
"collapse": {
"field": "category",
}
}
```
This change also adds an ExpandCollapseSearchResponseListener that intercepts the search response and expands collapsed hits using the CollapseBuilder#innerHit} options.
The retrieval of each inner_hits is done by sending a query to all shards filtered by the collapse key.
```
GET _search
{
"collapse": {
"field": "category",
"inner_hits": {
"size": 2
}
}
}

This change makes it possible for custom routing values to go to a subset of shards rather than
just a single shard. This enables the ability to utilize the spatial locality that custom routing can
provide while mitigating the likelihood of ending up with an imbalanced cluster or suffering
from a hot shard.
This is ideal for large multi-tenant indices with custom routing that suffer from one or both of
the following:
- The big tenants cannot fit into a single shard or there is so many of them that they will likely
end up on the same shard
- Tenants often have a surge in write traffic and a single shard cannot process it fast enough
Beyond that, this should also be useful for use cases where most queries are done under the context
of a specific field (e.g. a category) since it gives a hint at how the data can be stored to minimize
the number of shards to check per query. While a similar solution can be achieved with multiple
concrete indices or aliases per value today, those approaches breakdown for high cardinality fields.
A partitioned index enforces that mappings have routing required, that the partition size does not
change when shrinking an index (the partitions will shrink proportionally), and rejects mappings
that have parent/child relationships.
