From previous PRs, we've already added support for include_type_name to
the get mapping API. We had also taken an approach to the HLRC where the
server-side `GetMappingResponse#fromXContent` could only handle typeless
input.
This PR updates the HLRC for 'get mapping' to be in line with our new approach:
* Add a typeless 'get mappings' method to the Java HLRC, that accepts new
client-side request and response objects. This new response only handles
typeless mapping definitions.
* Switch the old version of `GetMappingResponse` back to expecting typed
mappings, and deprecate the corresponding method on the HLRC.
Finally, the PR also does some small, related clean-up around 'get field mappings'.
From #29453 and #37285, the include_type_name parameter was already present and defaulted to false. This PR makes the following updates:
* Add deprecation warnings to RestCreateIndexAction, plus tests in RestCreateIndexActionTests.
* Add a typeless 'create index' method to the Java HLRC, and deprecate the old typed version. To do this cleanly, I created new CreateIndexRequest and CreateIndexResponse objects that differ from the existing server ones.
- Add deprecation warning to RestGetFieldMappingAction
- Add two new java HRLC classes GetFieldMappingsRequest and
GetFieldMappingsResponse. These classes use new typeless forms
of a request and response, and differ in that from the server
versions.

From #29453 and #37285, the `include_type_name` parameter was already present and defaulted to false. This PR makes the following updates:
- Add deprecation warnings to `RestPutMappingAction`, plus tests in `RestPutMappingActionTests`.
- Add a typeless 'put mappings' method to the Java HLRC, and deprecate the old typed version. To do this cleanly, I opted to create a new `PutMappingRequest` object that differs from the existing server one.
This change adds deprecation warning to the indices.get_mapping API in case the
"inlcude_type_name" parameter is set to "true" and changes the parsing code in
GetMappingsResponse to parse the type-less response instead of the one
containing types. As a consequence the HLRC client doesn't need to force
"include_type_name=true" any more and the GetMappingsResponseTests can be
adapted to the new format as well. Also removing some "include_type_name"
parameters in yaml test and docs where not necessary.
This commit adds support for the index templates exist API, creating
new client-side request types for that API and the get index
templates API. Also adds links in hlrc docs to pages for supported
index template APIs
* Replace custom type names with _doc in REST examples.
* Avoid using two mapping types in the percolator docs.
* Rename doc -> _doc in the main repository README.
* Also replace some custom type names in the HLRC docs.
Given the weirdness of the response returned by the get alias API, we went for a client specific response, which allows us to hold the error message, exception and status returned as part of the response together with aliases. See #30536 .

This PR adds support for the Get Settings API to the java high-level rest client.
Furthermore, logic related to the retrieval of default settings has been moved from the rest layer into the transport layer and now default settings may be retrieved consistency via both the rest API and the transport API.
As part of adding support for new API to the high-level REST client,
we added support for the `flat_settings` parameter to some of our
request classes. We added documentation that such flag is only ever
read by the high-level REST client, but the truth is that it doesn't
do anything given that settings are always parsed back into a `Settings`
object, no matter whether they are returned in a flat format or not.
It was a mistake to add support for this flag in the context of the
high-level REST client, hence this commit removes it.
