* [ML] adding prediction_field_type to inference config (#55128)
Data frame analytics dynamically determines the classification field type. This field type then dictates the encoded JSON that is written to Elasticsearch.
Inference needs to know about this field type so that it may provide the EXACT SAME predicted values as analytics.
Here is added a new field `prediction_field_type` which indicates the desired type. Options are: `string` (DEFAULT), `number`, `boolean` (where close_to(1.0) == true, false otherwise).
Analytics provides the default `prediction_field_type` when the model is created from the process.
* [ML] add new inference_config field to trained model config (#54421)
A new field called `inference_config` is now added to the trained model config object. This new field allows for default inference settings from analytics or some external model builder.
The inference processor can still override whatever is set as the default in the trained model config.
* fixing for backport
It is possible for ML jobs to open lazily if the "allow_lazy_open"
option in the job config is set to true. Such jobs wait in the
"opening" state until a node has sufficient capacity to run them.
This commit fixes the bug that prevented datafeeds for jobs lazily
waiting assignment from being started. The state of such datafeeds
is "starting", and they can be stopped by the stop datafeed API
while in this state with or without force.
Backport of #53918
Adds a new parameter for classification that enables choosing whether to assign labels to
maximise accuracy or to maximise the minimum class recall.
Fixes#52427.
Adds a new `default_field_map` field to trained model config objects.
This allows the model creator to supply field map if it knows that there should be some map for inference to work directly against the training data.
The use case internally is having analytics jobs supply a field mapping for multi-field fields. This allows us to use the model "out of the box" on data where we trained on `foo.keyword` but the `_source` only references `foo`.
Adds reporting of memory usage for data frame analytics jobs.
This commit introduces a new index pattern `.ml-stats-*` whose
first concrete index will be `.ml-stats-000001`. This index serves
to store instrumentation information for those jobs.
Backport of #52778 and #52958
This adds a new configurable field called `indices_options`. This allows users to create or update the indices_options used when a datafeed reads from an index.
This is necessary for the following use cases:
- Reading from frozen indices
- Allowing certain indices in multiple index patterns to not exist yet
These index options are available on datafeed creation and update. Users may specify them as URL parameters or within the configuration object.

* [ML][Inference] add tags url param to GET (#51330)
Adds a new URL parameter, `tags` to the GET _ml/inference/<model_id> endpoint.
This parameter allows the list of models to be further reduced to those who contain all the provided tags.
Adds a new parameter to regression and classification that enables computation
of importance for the top most important features. The computation of the importance
is based on SHAP (SHapley Additive exPlanations) method.
Backport of #50914
This adds a new `randomize_seed` for regression and classification.
When not explicitly set, the seed is randomly generated. One can
reuse the seed in a similar job in order to ensure the same docs
are picked for training.
