Lee Hinman 568a7ea5f1 Fix incorrect instructions for disabling deprecation logging (#21569)
We log deprecation events at "WARN", so setting it to `info` means the events
are still logged. It must be set to `error` in order to disable the logging.

Jason Tedor 886eba076c Remove node.max_local_storage_nodes from setup doc
Previously node.max_local_storage_nodes defaulted to fifty, and this
permitted users to start multiple instances of Elasticsearch sharing the
same data folder. This can be dangerous, and usually it does not make
sense to run more than one instance of Elasticsearch on a single
server. Because of this, we had a note in the important settings docs
advising users to set this setting to one. However, we have since
changed the default value of this setting to one so this advise is no
longer needed.

Nik Everett 2b3760f78b File descriptors limit doesn't apply to Windows
On Windows the JDK uses `CreateFileW` which has a stupidly high

So this isn't really a problem on Windows at all.

Tanguy Leroux 6090c51fc5 Add quiet option to disable console logging (#20422)
This commit adds a -q/--quiet option to Elasticsearch so that it does not log anything in the console and closes stdout & stderr streams. This is useful for SystemD to avoid duplicate logs in both journalctl and /var/log/elasticsearch/elasticsearch.log while still allows the JVM to print error messages in stdout/stderr if needed.

Nik Everett 5cff2a046d Remove most of the need for `// NOTCONSOLE`

* Add `// CONSOLE` to check-running
* Fix version in some snippets
* Mark groovy snippets as groovy
* Fix versions in plugins
* Fix language marker errors
* Fix language parsing in snippets

  This adds support for snippets who's language is written like
  `[source, txt]` and `["source","js",subs="attributes,callouts"]`.

  This also makes language required for snippets which is nice because
  then we can be sure we can grep for snippets in a particular language.

Jason Tedor 1a805bb675 Increase visibility of deprecation logger
The deprecation logger is an important way to make visible features of
Elasticsearch that are deprecated. Yet, the default logging makes the
log messages for the deprecation logger invisible. We want these log
messages to be visible, so the default logging for the deprecation
logger should enable these log messages. This commit changes the log
level of deprecation log message to warn, and configures the deprecation
logger so that these log messages are visible out of the box.

Boaz Leskes cd596772ee Persistent Node Names (#19456)
With #19140 we started persisting the node ID across node restarts. Now that we have a "stable" anchor, we can use it to generate a stable default node name and make it easier to track nodes over a restarts. Sadly, this means we will not have those random fun Marvel characters but we feel this is the right tradeoff.

On the implementation side, this requires a bit of juggling because we now need to read the node id from disk before we can log as the node node is part of each log message. The PR move the initialization of NodeEnvironment as high up in the starting sequence as possible, with only one logging message before it to indicate we are initializing. Things look now like this:

```
[2016-07-15 19:38:39,742][INFO ][node                     ] [_unset_] initializing ...

```

Needless to say, settings `node.name` explicitly still works as before.

The commit also contains some clean ups to the relationship between Environment, Settings and Plugins. The previous code suggested the path related settings could be changed after the initial Environment was changed. This did not have any effect as the security manager already locked things down.

Jason Tedor e86aa29f67 Die with dignity
Today when a thread encounters a fatal unrecoverable error that
threatens the stability of the JVM, Elasticsearch marches on. This
includes out of memory errors, stack overflow errors and other errors
that leave the JVM in a questionable state. Instead, the Elasticsearch
JVM should die when these errors are encountered. This commit causes
this to be the case.

Jason Tedor e94408c0d2 Bootstrap check for OnError and seccomp
This commit adds a bootstrap check for the JVM option OnError being in
use and seccomp being enabled. These two options are incompatible
because OnError allows the user to specify an arbitrary program to fork
when the JVM encounters an fatal error, and seccomp enables system call
filters that prevents forking.

Jason Tedor 9695caa3fb Bootstrap check for OnOutOfMemoryError and seccomp
This commit adds a bootstrap check for the JVM option OnOutOfMemoryError

arbitrary program to fork when the JVM encounters an
OutOfMemoryError, and seccomp enables system call filters that prevents
forking.

This commit also adds support for bootstrap checks that are always
enforced, whether or not Elasticsearch is in production mode.
