Jim Ferenczi 1764ec56b3 Fixed naming inconsistency for fields/stored_fields in the APIs (#20166)
This change replaces the fields parameter with stored_fields when it makes sense.
This is dictated by the renaming we made in #18943 for the search API.

The following list of endpoint has been changed to use `stored_fields` instead of `fields`:
* get
* mget
* explain

The documentation and the rest API spec has been updated to cope with the changes for the following APIs:
* delete_by_query
* get
* mget
* explain

The `fields` parameter has been deprecated for the following APIs (it is replaced by _source filtering):
* update: the fields are extracted from the _source directly.
* bulk: the fields parameter is used but fields are extracted from the source directly so it is allowed to have non-stored fields.

Some APIs still have the `fields` parameter for various reasons:
* cat.fielddata: the fields paramaters relates to the fielddata fields that should be printed.
* indices.clear_cache: used to indicate which fielddata fields should be cleared.
* indices.get_field_mapping: used to filter fields in the mapping.
* indices.stats: get stats on fields (stored or not stored).
* termvectors: fields are retrieved from the stored fields if possible and extracted from the _source otherwise.
* mtermvectors:
* nodes.stats: the fields parameter is used to concatenate completion_fields and fielddata_fields so it's not related to stored_fields at all.

Fixes #20155

Jim Ferenczi 4682fc34ae Add the ability to disable the retrieval of the stored fields entirely
This change adds a special field named _none_ that allows to disable the retrieval of the stored fields in a search request or in a TopHitsAggregation.

To completely disable stored fields retrieval (including disabling metadata fields retrieval such as _id or _type) use _none_ like this:

````
POST _search
{
   "stored_fields": "_none_"
}
````

Jim Ferenczi afe99fcdcd Restore reverted change now that alpha4 is out:
Rename `fields` to `stored_fields` and add `docvalue_fields`

`stored_fields` parameter will no longer try to retrieve fields from the _source but will only return stored fields.
`fields` will throw an exception if the user uses it.
Add `docvalue_fields` as an adjunct to `fielddata_fields` which is deprecated. `docvalue_fields` will try to load the value from the docvalue and fallback to fielddata cache if docvalues are not enabled on that field.

Closes #18943
