This pipeline will calculate percentiles over a set of sibling buckets. This is an exact
implementation, meaning it needs to cache a copy of the series in memory and sort it to determine
the percentiles.
This comes with a few limitations: to prevent serializing data around, only the requested percentiles
are calculated (unlike the TDigest version, which allows the java API to ask for any percentile).
It also needs to store the data in-memory, resulting in some overhead if the requested series is
very large.
This pipeline aggregation runs a script on each bucket in the parent aggregation to determine whether the bucket is kept in the final aggregation tree. If the script returns true the bucket is retained, if it returns false the bucket is dropped
This adds a new pipeline aggregation, the cumulative sum aggregation. This is a parent aggregation which must be specified as a sub-aggregation to a histogram or date_histogram aggregation. It will add a new aggregation to each bucket containing the sum of a specified metrics over this and all previous buckets.
