Plugin discovery documentation contained information about installing
Elasticsearch 2.0 and installing an oracle JDK, both of which is no
longer valid.
While noticing that the instructions used cleartext HTTP to install
packages, this commit replaces HTTPs links instead of HTTP where possible.
In addition a few community links have been removed, as they do not seem
to exist anymore.

In #38333 and #38350 we moved away from the `discovery.zen` settings namespace
since these settings have an effect even though Zen Discovery itself is being
phased out. This change aligns the documentation and the names of related
classes and methods with the newly-introduced naming conventions.
This commit overhauls the documentation of discovery and cluster coordination,
removing mention of the Zen Discovery module and replacing it with docs for the
new cluster coordination mechanism introduced in 7.0.
Relates #32006
In #33241 we moved the file-based discovery functionality to core
Elasticsearch, but preserved the `discovery-file` plugin, and support for the
existing location of the `unicast_hosts.txt` file, for BWC reasons. This commit
completes the removal of this plugin.
As discussed at https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch-cloud-azure/issues/91#issuecomment-229113595, we know that the current `discovery-azure` plugin only works with Azure Classic VMs / Services (which is somehow Legacy now).
The proposal here is to rename `discovery-azure` to `discovery-azure-classic` in case some users are using it.
And deprecate it for 5.0.
Closes#19144.
Until now we had a cloud-azure plugin which is providing 3 distinct features:
* discovery on Azure
* snapshot/restore on Aure
* SMB store
This commit splits the plugin by feature so people can use either one or the other or both features.
Doc is updated accordingly.
Until now we had a cloud-aws plugin which is providing 2 disctinct features:
* discovery on EC2
* snapshot/restore on S3
This commit splits the plugin by feature so people can use either one or the other or both features.
Doc is updated accordingly.
Multicast has known issues (see #12999 and #12993). This change moves
multicast into a plugin, and deprecates it in the docs. It also allows
for plugging in multiple zen ping implementations.
closes#13019
