If a type or path is missing in the REST test yaml file, it is
automatically replaced with _all. This makes it hard to test changes
in the api, for example adding the possibility to leave the index
blank in addition to _all and * in the uri.
closes#4657
Named wildcards were not always properly replaced with proper values by PathTrie.
Delete index (curl -XDELETE localhost:9200/*) worked anyway as the named wildcard is the last path element (and even if {index} didn't get replaced with '*', the empty string would have mapped to all indices anyway). When the named wildcard wasn't the last path element (e.g. curl -XPOST localhost:29200/*/_close), the variable didn't get replaced with the current '*' value, but with the empty string, which leads to an error as empty index is not allowed by open/close index.

The new internal get index settings api is more efficient when it comes to sending the index settings from the master to the client via the
Also the get index settings support now all the indices options.

Important: This breaks backwards compatibility with 0.90
* Removed endpoints: /_cluster/nodes, /_cluster/nodes/nodeId1,nodeId2
* Disallow usage of parameters, but make required metrics part of URI
* Changed NodesInfoRequest to return everything by default
* Fixed NPE in NodesInfoResponse
Closes#4055
Currently there are two get aliases apis that both have the same functionality, but have a different response structure. The reason for having 2 apis is historic.
The GET _alias api was added in 0.90.x and is more efficient since it only sends the needed alias data from the cluster state between the master node and the node that received the request. In the GET _aliases api the complete cluster state is send to the node that received the request and then the right information is filtered out and send back to the client.
The GET _aliases api should be removed in favour for the alias api

* `ignore_unavailable` - Controls whether to ignore if any specified indices are unavailable, this includes indices that don't exist or closed indices. Either `true` or `false` can be specified.
* `allow_no_indices` - Controls whether to fail if a wildcard indices expressions results into no concrete indices. Either `true` or `false` can be specified. For example if the wildcard expression `foo*` is specified and no indices are available that start with `foo` then depending on this setting the request will fail. This setting is also applicable when `_all`, `*` or no index has been specified.
* `expand_wildcards` - Controls to what kind of concrete indices wildcard indices expression expand to. If `open` is specified then the wildcard expression if expanded to only open indices and if `closed` is specified then the wildcard expression if expanded only to closed indices. Also both values (`open,closed`) can be specified to expand to all indices.

Closes#4506
The following APIs now accept the query in a top level `query` field like:
* delete_by_query
* validate_query
* count
These APIs used to accept the query directly in the request body which was inconsistent with the search and explain APIs. For this reason t
