Allow `_doc` as a type. (#27816)
Allowing `_doc` as a type will enable users to make the transition to 7.0
smoother since the index APIs will be `PUT index/_doc/id` and `POST index/_doc`.
This also moves most of the documentation to `_doc` as a type name.

Simon Willnauer e81804cfa4 Add a shard filter search phase to pre-filter shards based on query rewriting (#25658)
Today if we search across a large amount of shards we hit every shard. Yet, it's quite
common to search across an index pattern for time based indices but filtering will exclude
all results outside a certain time range ie. `now-3d`. While the search can potentially hit
hundreds of shards the majority of the shards might yield 0 results since there is not document
that is within this date range. Kibana for instance does this regularly but used `_field_stats`
to optimize the indexes they need to query. Now with the deprecation of `_field_stats` and it's upcoming removal a single dashboard in kibana can potentially turn into searches hitting hundreds or thousands of shards and that can easily cause search rejections even though the most of the requests are very likely super cheap and only need a query rewriting to early terminate with 0 results.

This change adds a pre-filter phase for searches that can, if the number of shards are higher than a the `pre_filter_shard_size` threshold (defaults to 128 shards), fan out to the shards
and check if the query can potentially match any documents at all. While false positives are possible, a negative response means that no matches are possible. These requests are not subject to rejection and can greatly reduce the number of shards a request needs to hit. The approach here is preferable to the kibana approach with field stats since it correctly handles aliases and uses the correct threadpools to execute these requests. Further it's completely transparent to the user and improves scalability of elasticsearch in general on large clusters.

Adrien Grand 3f805d68cb Add the ability to set an analyzer on keyword fields. (#21919)
This adds a new `normalizer` property to `keyword` fields that pre-processes the
field value prior to indexing, but without altering the `_source`. Note that
only the normalization components that work on a per-character basis are
applied, so for instance stemming filters will be ignored while lowercasing or
ascii folding will be applied.

Closes #18064
