Adds recall@k metric to rank eval API (#52889)
This change adds the recall@k metric and refactors precision@k to match
the new metric.

Recall@k is an important metric to use for learning to rank (LTR)
use-cases. Candidate generation or first ranking phase ranking functions
are often optimized for high recall, in order to generate as many
relevant candidates in the top-k as possible for a second phase of
ranking. Adding this metric allows tuning that base query for LTR.

David Turner 69b78f7f8a "Adding nodes" instructions only work on localhost (#52677)
The introductory sections of the reference manual contains some simplified
instructions for adding a node to the cluster. Unfortunately they are a little
too simplified and only really work for clusters running on `localhost`. If you
try and follow these instructions for a distributed cluster then the new node
will, confusingly, auto-bootstrap itself into a distinct one-node cluster.

Multiple nodes running on localhost is a valid config, of course, but we should
spell out that these instructions are really only for experimentation and that
it takes a bit more work to add nodes to a distributed cluster. This commit
does so.

Also, the "important config" instructions for discovery say that you MUST set
`discovery.seed_hosts` whereas in fact it is fine to ignore this setting and
use a dynamic discovery mechanism instead. This commit weakens this statement
and links to the docs for dynamic discovery mechanisms.

Finally, this section is also overloaded with some technical details that are
not important for this context and are adequately covered elsewhere, and
completely fails to note that the default discovery port is 9300. This commit
addresses this.

[ML] Adds feature importance to option to inference processor (#52218) (#52666)
This adds machine learning model feature importance calculations to the inference processor.

The new flag in the configuration matches the analytics parameter name: `num_top_feature_importance_values`
Example:
```
"inference": {
   "field_mappings": {},
   "model_id": "my_model",
   "inference_config": {
      "regression": {
         "num_top_feature_importance_values": 3
      }
   }
}
```

This will write to the document as follows:
```
"inference" : {
   "feature_importance" : {
      "FlightTimeMin" : -76.90955548511226,
      "FlightDelayType" : 114.13514762158526,
      "DistanceMiles" : 13.731580450792187
   },
   "predicted_value" : 108.33165831875137,
   "model_id" : "my_model"
}
```

This is done through calculating the [SHAP values](https://arxiv.org/abs/1802.03888).

It requires that models have populated `number_samples` for each tree node. This is not available to models that were created before 7.7.

Additionally, if the inference config is requesting feature_importance, and not all nodes have been upgraded yet, it will not allow the pipeline to be created. This is to safe-guard in a mixed-version environment where only some ingest nodes have been upgraded.

NOTE: the algorithm is a Java port of the one laid out in ml-cpp: https://github.com/elastic/ml-cpp/blob/master/lib/maths/CTreeShapFeatureImportance.cc

James Rodewig 43376c6e06 [DOCS] Document how CCS handles cluster-level settings (#49941)
Updates the cross-cluster search (CCS) documentation to note how
cluster-level settings are applied.

When `ccs_minimize_roundtrips` is `true`, each cluster applies its own
cluster-level settings to the request.

When `ccs_minimize_roundtrips` is `false`, cluster-level settings for
the local cluster is used. This includes shard limit settings, such as
`action.search.shard_count.limit`, `pre_filter_shard_size`, and
`max_concurrent_shard_requests`. If these limits are set too low, the
request could be rejected.

Implement top_metrics agg (#51155) (#52366)
The `top_metrics` agg is kind of like `top_hits` but it only works on
doc values so it *should* be faster.

At this point it is fairly limited in that it only supports a single,
numeric sort and a single, numeric metric. And it only fetches the "very
topest" document worth of metric. We plan to support returning a
configurable number of top metrics, requesting more than one metric and
more than one sort. And, eventually, non-numeric sorts and metrics. The
trick is doing those things fairly efficiently.

David Turner 00b9098250 Ignore timeouts with single-node discovery (#52159)
Today we use `cluster.join.timeout` to prevent nodes from waiting indefinitely
if joining a faulty master that is too slow to respond, and
`cluster.publish.timeout` to allow a faulty master to detect that it is unable
to publish its cluster state updates in a timely fashion. If these timeouts
occur then the node restarts the discovery process in an attempt to find a
healthier master.

In the special case of `discovery.type: single-node` there is no point in
looking for another healthier master since the single node in the cluster is
all we've got. This commit suppresses these timeouts and instead lets the node
wait for joins and publications to succeed no matter how long this might take.

[7.x] Allow forcemerge in the hot phase for ILM policies (#520… (#52083)
* Allow forcemerge in the hot phase for ILM policies

This commit changes the `forcemerge` action to also be allowed in the `hot` phase for policies. The
forcemerge will occur after a rollover, and allows users to take advantage of higher disk speeds for
performing the force merge (on a separate node type, for example).

On caveat with this is that a `forcemerge` in the `hot` phase *MUST* be accompanied by a `rollover`
action. ILM validates policies to ensure this is the case.

Resolves #43165

* Use anyMatch instead of findAny in validation

* Make randomTimeseriesLifecyclePolicy single-pass

Introduce jvm.options.d for customizing JVM options (#51882)
This commit introduces the ability to override JVM options by adding
custom JVM options files to a jvm.options.d directory. This simplifies
administration of Elasticsearch by not requiring administrators to keep
the root jvm.options file in sync with changes that we make to the root
jvm.options file. Instead, they are not expected to modify this file but
instead supply their own in jvm.options.d. In Docker installations, this
means they can bind mount this directory in. In future versions of
Elasticsearch, we can consider removing the root jvm.options file
(instead, providing all options there as system JVM options).

Add autoscaling API skelton (#51564)
The main purpose of this commit is to add a single autoscaling REST
endpoint skeleton, for the purpose of starting to build out the build
and testing infrastructure that will surround it. For example, rather
than commiting a fully-functioning autoscaling API, we introduce here
the skeleton so that we can start wiring up the build and testing
infrastructure, establish security roles/permissions, an so on. This
way, in a forthcoming PR that introduces actual functionality, that PR
will be smaller and have less distractions around that sort of
infrastructure.

Make `date_range` query rounding consistent with `date` (#50237) (#51741)
Currently the rounding used in range queries can behave differently for `date`
and `date_range` as explained in #50009. The behaviour on `date` fields is
the one we document in https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/query-dsl-range-query.html#range-query-date-math-rounding.
This change adapts the rounding behaviour for RangeType.DATE so it uses the
same logic as the `date` for the `date_range` type.

Add warnings for invalid realm order config (#51195) (#51515)
The changes are to help users prepare for migration to next major

Warnings are added for when:
* A realm does not have an order config
* Multiple realms have the same order config

The warning messages are added to both deprecation API and loggings.
The main reasons for doing this are: 1) there is currently no automatic relay
between the two; 2) deprecation API is under basic and we need logging
for OSS.

Marios Trivyzas f373020349 SQL: Fix ORDER BY YEAR() function (#51562)
Previously, if YEAR() was used as and ORDER BY argument without being
wrapped with another scalar (e.g. YEAR(birth_date) + 10), no script
ordering was used but instead the underlying field (e.g. birth_date)
was used instead as a performance optimisation. This works correctly if
YEAR() is the only ORDER BY arg but if further args are used as tie
breakers for the ordering wrong results are produced. This is because
2 rows with the different birth_date but on the same year are not tied
as the underlying ordering is on birth_date and not on the
YEAR(birth_date), and the following ORDER BY args are ignored.

Remove this optimisation for YEAR() to avoid incorrect results in
such cases.

As a consequence another bug is revealed: scalar functions on top
of nested fields produce scripted sorting/filtering which is not yet
supported. In such cases no error was thrown but instead all values for
such nested fields were null and were passed to the script implementing
the sorting/filtering, producing incorrect results.

Detect such cases and throw a validation exception.

Deprecate timeout.tcp_read AD/LDAP realm setting (#47305)
The timeout.tcp_read AD/LDAP realm setting, despite the low-level
allusion, controls the time interval the realms wait for a response for
a query (search or bind). If the connection to the server is synchronous
(un-pooled) the response timeout is analogous to the tcp read timeout.
But the tcp read timeout is irrelevant in the common case of a pooled
connection (when a Bind DN is specified).

The timeout.tcp_read qualifier is hereby deprecated in favor of
timeout.response.

In addition, the default value for both timeout.tcp_read and
timeout.response is that of timeout.ldap_search, instead of the 5s (but
the default for timeout.ldap_search is still 5s). The
timeout.ldap_search defines the server-controlled timeout of a search
request. There is no practical use case to have a smaller tcp_read
timeout compared to ldap_search (in this case the request would time-out
on the client but continue to be processed on the server). The proposed
change aims to simplify configuration so that the more common
configuration change, adjusting timeout.ldap_search up, has the expected
result (no timeout during searches) without any additional
modifications.

Password-protected Keystore Feature Branch PR (#51123) (#51510)
* Reload secure settings with password (#43197)

If a password is not set, we assume an empty string to be
compatible with previous behavior.
Only allow the reload to be broadcast to other nodes if TLS is
enabled for the transport layer.

* Add passphrase support to elasticsearch-keystore (#38498)

This change adds support for keystore passphrases to all subcommands
of the elasticsearch-keystore cli tool and adds a subcommand for
changing the passphrase of an existing keystore.
The work to read the passphrase in Elasticsearch when
loading, which will be addressed in a different PR.

Subcommands of elasticsearch-keystore can handle (open and create)
passphrase protected keystores

When reading a keystore, a user is only prompted for a passphrase
only if the keystore is passphrase protected.

When creating a keystore, a user is allowed (default behavior) to create one with an
empty passphrase

Passphrase can be set to be empty when changing/setting it for an
existing keystore

Relates to: #32691
Supersedes: #37472

* Restore behavior for force parameter (#44847)

Turns out that the behavior of `-f` for the add and add-file sub
commands where it would also forcibly create the keystore if it
didn't exist, was by design - although undocumented.
This change restores that behavior auto-creating a keystore that
is not password protected if the force flag is used. The force
OptionSpec is moved to the BaseKeyStoreCommand as we will presumably
want to maintain the same behavior in any other command that takes
a force option.

*  Handle pwd protected keystores in all CLI tools  (#45289)

This change ensures that `elasticsearch-setup-passwords` and
`elasticsearch-saml-metadata` can handle a password protected
elasticsearch.keystore.
For setup passwords the user would be prompted to add the
elasticsearch keystore password upon running the tool. There is no
option to pass the password as a parameter as we assume the user is
present in order to enter the desired passwords for the built-in
users.
For saml-metadata, we prompt for the keystore password at all times
even though we'd only need to read something from the keystore when
there is a signing or encryption configuration.

* Modify docs for setup passwords and saml metadata cli (#45797)

Adds a sentence in the documentation of `elasticsearch-setup-passwords`
and `elasticsearch-saml-metadata` to describe that users would be
prompted for the keystore's password when running these CLI tools,
when the keystore is password protected.

* Elasticsearch keystore passphrase for startup scripts (#44775)

This commit allows a user to provide a keystore password on Elasticsearch
startup, but only prompts when the keystore exists and is encrypted.

The entrypoint in Java code is standard input. When the Bootstrap class is
checking for secure keystore settings, it checks whether or not the keystore
is encrypted. If so, we read one line from standard input and use this as the
password. For simplicity's sake, we allow a maximum passphrase length of 128
characters. (This is an arbitrary limit and could be increased or eliminated.
It is also enforced in the keystore tools, so that a user can't create a
password that's too long to enter at startup.)

In order to provide a password on standard input, we have to account for four
different ways of starting Elasticsearch: the bash startup script, the Windows
batch startup script, systemd startup, and docker startup. We use wrapper
scripts to reduce systemd and docker to the bash case: in both cases, a
wrapper script can read a passphrase from the filesystem and pass it to the
bash script.

In order to simplify testing the need for a passphrase, I have added a
has-passwd command to the keystore tool. This command can run silently, and
exit with status 0 when the keystore has a password. It exits with status 1 if
the keystore doesn't exist or exists and is unencrypted.

A good deal of the code-change in this commit has to do with refactoring
packaging tests to cleanly use the same tests for both the "archive" and the
"package" cases. This required not only moving tests around, but also adding
some convenience methods for an abstraction layer over distribution-specific
commands.

* Adjust docs for password protected keystore (#45054)

This commit adds relevant parts in the elasticsearch-keystore
sub-commands reference docs and in the reload secure settings API
doc.

* Fix failing Keystore Passphrase test for feature branch (#50154)

One problem with the passphrase-from-file tests, as written, is that
they would leave a SystemD environment variable set when they failed,
and this setting would cause elasticsearch startup to fail for other
tests as well. By using a try-finally, I hope that these tests will fail
more gracefully.

It appears that our Fedora and Ubuntu environments may be configured to
store journald information under /var rather than under /run, so that it
will persist between boots. Our destructive tests that read from the
journal need to account for this in order to avoid trying to limit the
output we check in tests.

* Run keystore management tests on docker distros (#50610)

* Add Docker handling to PackagingTestCase

Keystore tests need to be able to run in the Docker case. We can do this
by using a DockerShell instead of a plain Shell when Docker is running.

* Improve ES startup check for docker

Previously we were checking truncated output for the packaged JDK as
an indication that Elasticsearch had started. With new preliminary
password checks, we might get a false positive from ES keystore
commands, so we have to check specifically that the Elasticsearch
class from the Bootstrap package is what's running.

* Test password-protected keystore with Docker (#50803)

This commit adds two tests for the case where we mount a
password-protected keystore into a Docker container and provide a
password via a Docker environment variable.

We also fix a logging bug where we were logging the identifier for an
array of strings rather than the contents of that array.

* Add documentation for keystore startup prompting (#50821)

When a keystore is password-protected, Elasticsearch will prompt at
startup. This commit adds documentation for this prompt for the archive,
systemd, and Docker cases.

* Warn when unable to upgrade keystore on debian (#51011)

For Red Hat RPM upgrades, we warn if we can't upgrade the keystore. This
commit brings the same logic to the code for Debian packages. See the
posttrans file for gets executed for RPMs.

* Restore handling of string input

Adds tests that were mistakenly removed. One of these tests proved
we were not handling the the stdin (-x) option correctly when no
input was added. This commit restores the original approach of
reading stdin one char at a time until there is no more (-1, \r, \n)
instead of using readline() that might return null

* Apply spotless reformatting

* Use '--since' flag to get recent journal messages

When we get Elasticsearch logs from journald, we want to fetch only log
messages from the last run. There are two reasons for this. First, if
there are many logs, we might get a string that's too large for our
utility methods. Second, when we're looking for a specific message or
error, we almost certainly want to look only at messages from the last
execution.

Previously, we've been trying to do this by clearing out the physical
files under the journald process. But there seems to be some contention
over these directories: if journald writes a log file in between when
our deletion command deletes the file and when it deletes the log
directory, the deletion will fail.

It seems to me that we might be able to use journald's "--since" flag to
retrieve only log messages from the last run, and that this might be
less likely to fail due to race conditions in file deletion.

Unfortunately, it looks as if the "--since" flag has a granularity of
one-second. I've added a two-second sleep to make sure that there's a
sufficient gap between the test that will read from journald and the
test before it.

* Use new journald wrapper pattern

* Update version added in secure settings request

Remove DEBUG-level default logging from actions (#51459)
In 2bb31fe (v0.6.0!) we added DEBUG-level logging to the default config of
action loggers "for easier debugging". This change to the default config lives
on to this day. It does not obviously make debugging any easier any more, but
it does result in a good deal of log noise sometimes. This commit removes this
special case from the default config.

Introduce hidden indices (#51164)
This change introduces a new feature for indices so that they can be
hidden from wildcard expansion. The feature is referred to as hidden
indices. An index can be marked hidden through the use of an index
setting, `index.hidden`, at creation time. One primary use case for
this feature is to have a construct that fits indices that are created
by the stack that contain data used for display to the user and/or
intended for querying by the user. The desire to keep them hidden is
to avoid confusing users when searching all of the data they have
indexed and getting results returned from indices created by the
system.

Hidden indices have the following properties:
* API calls for all indices (empty indices array, _all, or *) will not
  return hidden indices by default.
* Wildcard expansion will not return hidden indices by default unless
  the wildcard pattern begins with a `.`. This behavior is similar to
  shell expansion of wildcards.
* REST API calls can enable the expansion of wildcards to hidden
  indices with the `expand_wildcards` parameter. To expand wildcards
  to hidden indices, use the value `hidden` in conjunction with `open`
  and/or `closed`.
* Creation of a hidden index will ignore global index templates. A
  global index template is one with a match-all pattern.
* Index templates can make an index hidden, with the exception of a
  global index template.
* Accessing a hidden index directly requires no additional parameters.

Move metadata storage to Lucene (#50928)
* Move metadata storage to Lucene (#50907)

Today we split the on-disk cluster metadata across many files: one file for the metadata of each
index, plus one file for the global metadata and another for the manifest. Most metadata updates
only touch a few of these files, but some must write them all. If a node holds a large number of
indices then it's possible its disks are not fast enough to process a complete metadata update before timing out. In severe cases affecting master-eligible nodes this can prevent an election
from succeeding.

This commit uses Lucene as a metadata storage for the cluster state, and is a squashed version
of the following PRs that were targeting a feature branch:

* Introduce Lucene-based metadata persistence (#48733)

This commit introduces `LucenePersistedState` which master-eligible nodes
can use to persist the cluster metadata in a Lucene index rather than in
many separate files.

Relates #48701

* Remove per-index metadata without assigned shards (#49234)

Today on master-eligible nodes we maintain per-index metadata files for every
index. However, we also keep this metadata in the `LucenePersistedState`, and
only use the per-index metadata files for importing dangling indices. However
there is no point in importing a dangling index without any shard data, so we
do not need to maintain these extra files any more.

This commit removes per-index metadata files from nodes which do not hold any
shards of those indices.

Relates #48701

* Use Lucene exclusively for metadata storage (#50144)

This moves metadata persistence to Lucene for all node types. It also reenables BWC and adds
an interoperability layer for upgrades from prior versions.

This commit disables a number of tests related to dangling indices and command-line tools.
Those will be addressed in follow-ups.

Relates #48701

* Add command-line tool support for Lucene-based metadata storage (#50179)

Adds command-line tool support (unsafe-bootstrap, detach-cluster, repurpose, & shard
commands) for the Lucene-based metadata storage.

Relates #48701

* Use single directory for metadata (#50639)

Earlier PRs for #48701 introduced a separate directory for the cluster state. This is not needed
though, and introduces an additional unnecessary cognitive burden to the users.

* Add async dangling indices support (#50642)

Adds support for writing out dangling indices in an asynchronous way. Also provides an option to

Relates #48701

* Fold node metadata into new node storage (#50741)

Moves node metadata to uses the new storage mechanism (see #48701) as the authoritative source.

* Write CS asynchronously on data-only nodes (#50782)

Writes cluster states out asynchronously on data-only nodes. The main reason for writing out
the cluster state at all is so that the data-only nodes can snap into a cluster, that they can do a
bit of bootstrap validation and so that the shard recovery tools work.
Cluster states that are written asynchronously have their voting configuration adapted to a non
existing configuration so that these nodes cannot mistakenly become master even if their node
role is changed back and forth.

Relates #48701

* Remove persistent cluster settings tool (#50694)

Adds the elasticsearch-node remove-settings tool to remove persistent settings from the on
disk cluster state in case where it contains incompatible settings that prevent the cluster from
forming.

Relates #48701

* Make cluster state writer resilient to disk issues (#50805)

Adds handling to make the cluster state writer resilient to disk issues. Relates to #48701

* Omit writing global metadata if no change (#50901)

Uses the same optimization for the new cluster state storage layer as the old one, writing global
metadata only when changed. Avoids writing out the global metadata if none of the persistent
fields changed. Speeds up server:integTest by ~10%.

Relates #48701

* DanglingIndicesIT should ensure node removed first (#50896)

These tests occasionally failed because the deletion was submitted before the
restarting node was removed from the cluster, causing the deletion not to be
fully acked. This commit fixes this by checking the restarting node has been
removed from the cluster.

7.6 or later. It's deprecated in 7.6 and will be removed in 8.0.

[7.x] Refresh cached phase policy definition if possible on ne… (#50941)
* Refresh cached phase policy definition if possible on new policy

There are some cases when updating a policy does not change the
structure in a significant way. In these cases, we can reread the
policy definition for any indices using the updated policy.

This commit adds this refreshing to the `TransportPutLifecycleAction`
to allow this. It allows us to do things like change the configuration
values for a particular step, even when on that step (for example,
changing the rollover criteria while on the `check-rollover-ready` step).

There are more cases where the phase definition can be reread that just
the ones checked here (for example, removing an action that has already
been passed), and those will be added in subsequent work.

Disable DiagnosticTrustManager in FIPS 140 (#49888)
This commit changes the default behavior for
xpack.security.ssl.diagnose.trust when running in a FIPS 140 JVM.

More specifically, when xpack.security.fips_mode.enabled is true:

- If xpack.security.ssl.diagnose.trust is not explicitly set, the
    default value of it becomes false and a log message is printed
    on info level, notifying of the fact that the TLS/SSL diagnostic
    messages are not enabled when in a FIPS 140 JVM.
- If xpack.security.ssl.diagnose.trust is explicitly set, the value of
    it is honored, even in FIPS mode.

This is relevant only for 7.x where we support Java 8 in which
SunJSSE can still be used as a FIPS 140 provider for TLS. SunJSSE
in FIPS mode, disallows the use of other TrustManager implementations
than the one shipped with SunJSSE.

Support offset in composite aggs (#50609) (#50808)
Adds support for the `offset` parameter to the `date_histogram` source
of composite aggs. The `offset` parameter is supported by the normal
`date_histogram` aggregation and is useful for folks that need to
measure things from, say, 6am one day to 6am the next day.

This is implemented by creating a new `Rounding` that knows how to
handle offsets and delegates to other rounding implementations. That
implementation doesn't fully implement the `Rounding` contract, namely
`nextRoundingValue`. That method isn't used by composite aggs so I can't
be sure that any implementation that I add will be correct. I propose to
leave it throwing `UnsupportedOperationException` until I need it.

Closes #48757

[Transform] fail to start/put on missing pipeline (#50701) (#50795)
If a pipeline referenced by a transform does not exist, we should not allow the transform to be created. 

We do allow the pipeline existence check to be skipped with defer_validations, but if the pipeline still does not exist on `_start`, the pipeline will fail to start.
