This change migrates all of the xpack code to use the new ThreadContext when
dealing with headers and context data. For the most part this is a simple
cutover, but there are some things that required special casing. The internal
actions that executed by a user's requests need to forcefully drop the context
and set the system user. The workaround for this will be improved in a followup.
Additionally, the RequestContext still lives on due to the OptOutQueryCache,
which requires some core changes to fix this issue.
Original commit: elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch@87d2966d93
Shield expands wildcards to concrete names (aliases or indices) before each request gets executed in es core. It never resolves aliases to concrete indices though, as permissions may be set against aliases rather than indices. During this resolution, it also looks at the state of the indices and the current indices options (expand_wildcards) to expand only to indices with the relevant state. When it comes to aliases though, they may point to multiple indices each one having a different state, so it always expands ignoring expand_wildcards. At that point the request will contain the explicit name of the alias, no wildcards, thus the expand_wildcards option will have no effect in core. ignore_unavailable could be used instead when interacting with shield, which would affect how aliases are resolved to multiple indices. In this case we can only blacklist the test in shield, as it will return both the closed index and the open one.
