Map only specific type of OIDC Claims (#58524) (#59043)
This commit changes our behavior in 2 ways:

- When mapping claims to user properties ( principal, email, groups,
name), we only handle string and array of string type. Previously
we would fail to recognize an array of other types and that would
cause failures when trying to cast to String.
- When adding unmapped claims to the user metadata, we only handle
string, number, boolean and arrays of these. Previously, we would
fail to recognize an array of other types and that would cause
failures when attempting to process role mappings.

For user properties that are inherently single valued, like
principal(username) we continue to support arrays of strings where
we select the first one in case this is being depended on by users
but we plan on removing this leniency in the next major release.

[7.x] Fix responses for the token APIs (#54532) (#55278)
This commit fixes our behavior regarding the responses we
return in various cases for the use of token related APIs.
More concretely:

- In the Get Token API with the `refresh` grant, when an invalid
(already deleted, malformed, unknown) refresh token is used in the
body of the request, we respond with `400` HTTP status code
 and an `error_description` header with the message "could not
refresh the requested token".
Previously we would return erroneously return a  `401` with "token
malformed" message.

- In the Invalidate Token API, when using an invalid (already
deleted, malformed, unknown) access or refresh token, we respond
with `404` and a body that shows that no tokens were invalidated:
   ```
   {
     "invalidated_tokens":0,
     "previously_invalidated_tokens":0,
      "error_count":0
   }
   ```
   The previous behavior would be to erroneously return
a `400` or `401` ( depending on the case ).

- In the Invalidate Token API, when the tokens index doesn't
exist or is closed, we return `400` because we assume this is
a user issue either because they tried to invalidate a token
when there is no tokens index yet ( i.e. no tokens have
been created yet or the tokens index has been deleted ) or the
index is closed.

- In the Invalidate Token API, when the tokens index is
unavailable, we return a `503` status code because
we want to signal to the caller of the API that the token they
tried to invalidate was not invalidated and we can't be sure
if it is still valid or not, and that they should try the request
again.

Adjust file realm docs (#52471) (#52745)
The existing wording in the file realm docs proved confusing
for users as it seemed to indicate that it should _only_ be
used as a fallback/recovery realm and that it is not a
first class realm.

This change attempts to clarify this and point out that recovery
is _a_ use case for the file realm but not the only intended one.

Add new 'maintenance' index privilege #50643
This commit creates a new index privilege named `maintenance`.
The privilege grants the following actions: `refresh`, `flush` (also synced-`flush`),
and `force-merge`. Previously the actions were only under the `manage` privilege
which in some situations was too permissive.

Deprecating kibana_user and kibana_dashboard_only_user roles (#50963)
This change adds a new `kibana_admin` role, and deprecates
the old `kibana_user` and`kibana_dashboard_only_user`roles.

The deprecation is implemented via a new reserved metadata
attribute, which can be consumed from the API and also triggers
deprecation logging when used (by a user authenticating to
Elasticsearch).

Some docs have been updated to avoid references to these
deprecated roles.

Add 'monitor_snapshot' cluster privilege (#50489) (#50647)
This adds a new cluster privilege `monitor_snapshot` which is a restricted
version of `create_snapshot`, granting the same privileges to view
snapshot and repository info and status but not granting the actual
privilege to create a snapshot.

The docs/reference/redirects.asciidoc file stores a list of relocated or

This prunes several older redirects that are no longer needed and
don't require work to fix broken links in other repositories.

Refactor environment variable processing for Docker (#50221)
Backport of #49612.

The current Docker entrypoint script picks up environment variables and
translates them into -E command line arguments. However, since any tool
executes via `docker exec` doesn't run the entrypoint, it results in
a poorer user experience.

Therefore, refactor the env var handling so that the -E options are
generated in `elasticsearch-env`. These have to be appended to any
existing command arguments, since some CLI tools have subcommands and
-E arguments must come after the subcommand.

Also extract the support for `_FILE` env vars into a separate script, so
that it can be called from more than once place (the behaviour is
idempotent).

Finally, add noop -E handling to CronEvalTool for parity, and support
`-E` in MultiCommand before subcommands.

Remove limitation for SAML encryption in FIPS mode (#48948) (#49019)
Our documentation regarding FIPS 140 claimed that when using SAML
in a JVM that is configured in FIPS approved only mode, one could
not use encrypted assertions. This stemmed from a wrong
understanding regarding the compliance of RSA-OAEP which is used
as the key wrapping algorithm for encrypting the key with which the
SAML Assertion is encrypted.

However, as stated for instance in
https://downloads.bouncycastle.org/fips-java/BC-FJA-SecurityPolicy-1.0.0.pdf
RSA-OAEP is approved for key transport, so this limitation is not
effective.

This change removes the limitation from our FIPS 140 related
documentation.
