Dave Richardson eaefb5f99b Descriptions for scripting enabled (#22388)
The `Script source settings` section currently states that `false` means scripting is ENABLED.
The other sections seem to indicate that `false` means scripting is DISABLED.

If the current documentation is correct, that would imply that `inline` and `stored` scripting are ENABLED by default, which seems to conflict with all the other sections in the document.

Nik Everett 61597f2c20 Send error_trace by default when testing (#22195)
Sends the `error_trace` parameter with all requests sent by the
yaml test framework, including the doc snippet tests. This can be
overridden by settings `error_trace: false`. While this drift's
core's handling of the yaml tests from the client's slightly this
should only be a problem for tests that rely on the default value,
both of which I've fixed by setting the value explicitly.

This also escapes `\n` and `\t` in the `Stash dump on failure` so
the `stack_trace` is more readable.

Also fixes `RestUpdateSettingsAction` to not think of the `error_trace`
parameter as a setting.

Jason Tedor b9df2e2287 Improve the out-of-the-box experience
Elasticsearch can be run in a few different ways:
 - from the command line on Linux and Windows
 - as a service on Linux and Windows

on both 32-bit client and 64-bit server VMs. We strive for a great
out-of-the-box experience any of these combinations but today it is
lacking on 32-bit client JVMs and on the Windows service. There are two
deficiencies that arise:
 - on any 32-bit client JVM we fail to start out of the box because we
   force the server JVM in jvm.options
 - when installing the Windows service, the thread stack size must be
   specified in jvm.options

This commit attempts to address these deficiencies.

We should continue to force the server JVM because there are systems
where the server JVM is not active by default (e.g., the 32-bit JDK on
Windows). This does mean that if a user tries to run with a client JVM
they will see a failure message at startup but this is the best that we
can do if we want to continue to force the server JVM. Thus, this commit
at least documents this situation.

To improve the situation with installing the Windows service, this
commit adds a default setting for the thread stack size. This default is
chosen based on the default thread stack size across all 64-bit server
JVMs. This means that if a user tries to run with a 32-bit JVM they
could otherwise see significantly higher memory usage (this situation is
complicated, it's really only on Windows where the extra memory usage is
egregious, but cutting into the 32-bit address space on any system is
bad). So this commit makes it so that the out-of-the-box experience is
improved for the Windows service on 64-bit server JVMs and we document
the need to adjust this setting on 32-bit JVMs.

Again, we are focusing on the out-of-the-box experience here and this
means optimizing for the best experience on any 64-bit server JVM as
this covers the vast majority of the user base. The users that are on
32-bit JVMs will suffer a little bit but at least now any user on any
64-bit server JVM can start Elasticsearch out of the box.

Finally, we fix some references to the jvm.options documentation.

NOTE: The result of `?.` and `?:` can't be assigned to primitives. So
`int[] someArray = null; int l = someArray?.length` and
`int s = params.size ?: 100` don't work. Do
`def someArray = null; def l = someArray?.length` and
`def s = params.size ?: 100` instead.

Jason Tedor 9dc65037bc Lazy resolve unicast hosts
Today we eagerly resolve unicast hosts. This means that if DNS changes,
we will never find the host at the new address. Moreover, a single host
failng to resolve causes startup to abort. This commit introduces lazy
resolution of unicast hosts. If a DNS entry changes, there is an
opportunity for the host to be discovered. Note that under the Java
security manager, there is a default positive cache of infinity for
resolved hosts; this means that if a user does want to operate in an
environment where DNS can change, they must adjust
networkaddress.cache.ttl in their security policy. And if a host fails
to resolve, we warn log the hostname but continue pinging other
configured hosts.

When doing DNS resolutions for unicast hostnames, we wait until the DNS
lookups timeout. This appears to be forty-five seconds on modern JVMs,
and it is not configurable. If we do these serially, the cluster can be
blocked during ping for a lengthy period of time. This commit introduces
doing the DNS lookups in parallel, and adds a user-configurable timeout
for these lookups.

You can use `Debug.explain(someObject)` in painless to throw an

Nik Everett ae468441dc Implement the ?: operator in painless (#21506)
Implements a null coalescing operator in painless that looks like `?:`. This form was chosen to emulate Groovy's `?:` operator. It is different in that it only coalesces null values, instead of Groovy's `?:` operator which coalesces all falsy values. I believe that makes it the same as Kotlin's `?:` operator. In other languages this operator looks like `??` (C#) and `COALESCE` (SQL) and `:-` (bash).

This operator is lazy, meaning the right hand side is only evaluated at all if the left hand side is null.

Nik Everett d03b8e4abb Implement reading from null safe dereferences
Null safe dereferences make handling null or missing values shorter.
Compare without:
```
if (ctx._source.missing != null && ctx._source.missing.foo != null) {
  ctx._source.foo_length = ctx.source.missing.foo.length()
}
```

To with:
```
Integer length = ctx._source.missing?.foo?.length();
if (length != null) {
  ctx._source.foo_length = length
}
```

Combining this with the as of yet unimplemented elvis operator allows
for very concise defaults for nulls:
```
ctx._source.foo_length = ctx._source.missing?.foo?.length() ?: 0;
```

Since you have to start somewhere, we started with null safe dereferenes.

Anyway, this is a feature borrowed from groovy. Groovy allows writing to
null values like:
```
def v = null
v?.field = 'cat'
```
And the writes are simply ignored. Painless doesn't support this at this
point because it'd be complex to implement and maybe not all that useful.

There is no runtime cost for this feature if it is not used. When it is
used we implement it fairly efficiently, adding a jump rather than a
temporary variable.

This should also work fairly well with doc values.

Nik Everett 3a7a218e8f Support negative array ofsets in painless
Adds support for indexing into lists and arrays with negative
indexes meaning "counting from the back". So for if
`x = ["cat", "dog", "chicken"]` then `x[-1] == "chicken"`.

This adds an extra branch to every array and list access but
some performance testing makes it look like the branch predictor
successfully predicts the branch every time so there isn't a
in execution time for this feature when the index is positive.
When the index is negative performance testing showed the runtime
is the same as writing `x[x.length - 1]`, again, presumably thanks
to the branch predictor.

Those performance metrics were calculated for lists and arrays but
`def`s get roughly the same treatment though instead of inlining
the test they need to make a invoke dynamic so we don't screw up
maps.
