Resolving wildcards in aliases expression is challenging as we may end
up with no aliases to replace the original expression with, but if we
replace with an empty array that means _all which is quite the opposite.
Now that we support and serialize the original requested aliases,
whenever aliases are replaced we will be able to know what was
initially requested. `MetaData#findAliases` can then be updated to not
return anything in case it gets empty aliases, but the original aliases
were not empty. That means that empty aliases are interpreted as _all
only if they were originally requested that way.

Removes support for storing scripts without the usual json around the
script. So You can no longer do:
```
POST _scripts/<templatename>
{
"query": {
"match": {
"title": "{{query_string}}"
}
}
}
```
and must instead do:
```
POST _scripts/<templatename>
{
"script": {
"lang": "mustache",
"source": {
"query": {
"match": {
"title": "{{query_string}}"
}
}
}
}
}
```
This improves error reporting when you attempt to store a script but don't
quite get the syntax right. Before, there was a good chance that we'd
think of it as a "raw" template and just store it. Now we won't do that.
Nice.
Today when an index is created from shrinking or splitting an existing
index, the target index inherits almost none of the source index
settings. This is surprising and a hassle for operators managing such
indices. Given this is the default behavior, we can not simply change
it. Instead, we start by introducing the ability to copy settings. This
flag can be set on the REST API or on the transport layer and it has the
behavior that it copies all settings from the source except non-copyable
settings (a property of a setting introduced in this
change). Additionally, settings on the request will always override.
This change is the first step in our adventure:
- this flag is added here in 7.0.0 and immediately deprecated
- this flag will be backported to 6.4.0 and remain deprecated
- then, we will remove the ability to set this flag to false in 7.0.0
- finally, in 8.0.0 we will remove this flag and the only behavior will
be for settings to be copied
A previous change modified the output of the thread pool info contained
in the nodes info API. This commit adds a note to the migration docs for
this change.
This metric previously existed for backwards compatibility reasons
although the suggest stats were folded into search stats. This metric
was deprecated in 6.3.0 and this commit removes them for 7.0.0.
CRUD: Parsing changes for UpdateRequest (#29293)
Use `ObjectParser` to parse `UpdateRequest` so we reject unknown fields
and drop support for the `_fields` parameter because it was deprecated
in 5.x.
Stardardize underscore requirements in parameters across different type of
requests:
_index, _type, _source, _id keep their underscores
params like version and retry_on_conflict will be without underscores
Throw an error if older versions of parameters are used
BulkRequest, MultiGetRequest, TermVectorcRequest, MoreLikeThisQuery
were changed
