This PR adds a section to the new 'run a search' reference that explains
the options for returning fields. Previously each option was only listed as a
separate request parameter and it was hard to know what was available.
Add `TRIM` function which combines the functionality of both
`LTRIM` and `RTRIM` by stripping both leading and trailing
whitespaces.

This commit highlights the ability for geo_point fields to be
used in geo_shape queries. It also adds an explicit geo_point
example in the geo_shape query documentation
Closes#56927.
Several APIs support options that can be specified as a query parameter or a
request body parameter.
Currently, this is documented using notes, which can get rather lengthy. This
replaces those multiple notes with a single note and a footnote.
Add basic support for `TOP X` as a synonym to LIMIT X which is used
by [MS-SQL server](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/t-sql/queries/top-transact-sql?view=sql-server-ver15),
e.g.:
```
SELECT TOP 5 a, b, c FROM test
```
TOP in SQL server also supports the `PERCENTAGE` and `WITH TIES`
keywords which this implementation doesn't.
Don't allow usage of both TOP and LIMIT in the same query.

Generally we don't advocate for using `stored_fields`, and we're interested in
eventually removing the need for this parameter. So it's best to avoid using
stored fields in our docs examples when it's not actually necessary.
Individual changes:
* Avoid using 'stored_fields' in our docs.
* When defining script fields in top-hits, de-emphasize stored fields.
Reworks the `from / size` content to `Paginate search results`.
Moves those docs from the request body search API page (slated for
deletion) to the `Run a search` tutorial docs.
Also adds some notes to the `from` and `size` param docs.

The old description mentions a setting that we ended up not merging.
The periodic real-memory checks are automatic and do not require
the user to configure any setting.
**Goal**
Create a top-level search section. This will let us clean up our search
API reference docs, particularly content from [`Request body search`][0].
**Changes**
* Creates a top-level `Search your data` page. This page is designed to
house concept and tutorial docs related to search.
* Creates a `Run a search` page under `Search your data`. For now, This
contains a basic search tutorial. The goal is to add content from
[`Request body search`][0] to this in the future.
* Relocates `Long-running searches` and `Search across clusters` under
`Search your data`. Increments several headings in that content.
* Reorders the top-level TOC to move `Search your data` higher. Also
moves the `Query DSL`, `EQL`, and `SQL access` chapters immediately
after.

* Moves `Discovery and cluster formation` content from `Modules` to
`Set up Elasticsearch`.
* Combines `Adding and removing nodes` with `Adding nodes to your
cluster`. Adds related redirect.
* Removes and redirects the `Modules` page.
* Rewrites parts of `Discovery and cluster formation` to remove `module`
references and meta references to the section.
Relocates the "Remote Clusters" documentation from the "Modules" section to the "Set up Elasticsearch" section.
Supporting changes:
* Reorders the "Bootstrap checks for X-Pack" section to immediately follow the "Bootstrap checks"chapter.
* Removes an outdated X-Pack `idef` from the "Remote Clusters" intro.
* Make it more clear that you can use `month` or `1M`.
* Explain rounding rules
* Consistently use "time zone" instead of "timezone". It looks like both
are right but I see "time zone" much more. And the parameter in
elasticsearch is `time_zone` so we may as well line up.

This commit adds support for rules with multiple tokens on LHS, also
known as "contraction rules", into stemmer override token
filter. Contraction rules are handy into translating multiple
inflected words into the same root form. One side effect of this change is
that it brings stemmer override rules format closer to synonym rules
format so that it makes it easier to translate one into another.
This change also makes stemmer override rules parser more strict so
that it should catch more errors which were previously accepted.
Closes#56113
* [ML] adds new for_export flag to GET _ml/inference API (#57351)
Adds a new boolean flag, `for_export` to the `GET _ml/inference/<model_id>` API.
This flag is useful for moving models between clusters.
This commit adds the `expand_wildcards` parameter documentation to the
`_cat/indices` and `_cat/aliases` docs, as those APIs now support
`expand_wildcards`. Additionally, clarifies the `expand_wildcards` docs with
respect to hidden indices.
This adds a max_model_memory setting to forecast requests.
This setting can take a string value that is formatted according to byte sizes (i.e. "50mb", "150mb").
The default value is `20mb`.
There is a HARD limit at `500mb` which will throw an error if used.
If the limit is larger than 40% the anomaly job's configured model limit, the forecast limit is reduced to be strictly lower than that value. This reduction is logged and audited.

Backporting #56888 to 7.x branch.
Limit the creation of data streams only for namespaces that have a composable template with a data stream definition.
This way we ensure that mappings/settings have been specified and will be used at data stream creation and data stream rollover.
Also remove `timestamp_field` parameter from create data stream request and
let the create data stream api resolve the timestamp field
from the data stream definition snippet inside a composable template.

Changes:
* Rewrites description and adds a Lucene link
* Reformats the configurable parameters as a definition list
* Changes the `Theory` heading to `Using the min_hash token filter for

This saves memory when running numeric significant terms which are not

As discussed at https://elastic.slack.com/archives/C0D1XEXEZ/p1586939752242300 is it not possible to restore snapshots taken on newer versions into clusters running lower versions. For example, a snapshot created in a 7.6.0 cluster cannot be restored on a 7.5.0 cluster. This needs to be documented.
Makes following changes to better clarify docs for read-only URL
snapshot repositories:
* Adds an example snippet for registering a URL repository
* Rewrites the protocols paragraph
* Adds a note to explicitly point out that only URLs using the `ftp`,
`http`, `http`, and `jar` protocols do not need the `path.repo`
setting.
Fixes#16280
Previously, the restore API snippet included a `include_global_state` value of `true`.
Some users copy and paste the code example verbatim, updating only the index and
snapshot value names. Running the snippet could inadvertently wipe out a
cluster's current ILM policies, index templates, and ingest pipelines.
This change updates the snippet to use a `include_global_state` value of
`false`. It also adds a callout that better describes impacts of
using a `include_global_state` argument of `true`.

Move the JDBC functionality integration tests from `:sql:qa` to a separate
module `:sql:qa:jdbc`. This way the tests are isolated from the rest of the
integration tests and they only depend to the `:sql:jdbc` module, thus
removing the danger of accidentally pulling in some dependency that may
hide bugs.
Moreover this is a preparation for #56722, so that we can run those tests
between different JDBC and ES node versions and ensure forward
compatibility.
Move the rest of existing tests inside a new `:sql:qa:server` project, so that
the `:sql:qa` becomes the parent project for both and one can run all the integration
tests by using this parent project.

Throttling nightly cleanup as much as we do has been over cautious.
Night cleanup should be more lenient in its throttling. We still
keep the same batch size, but now the requests per second scale
with the number of data nodes. If we have more than 5 data nodes,
we don't throttle at all.
Additionally, the API now has `requests_per_second` and `timeout` set.
So users calling the API directly can set the throttling.
This commit also adds a new setting `xpack.ml.nightly_maintenance_requests_per_second`.
This will allow users to adjust throttling of the nightly maintenance.
* [Transform] add support for terms agg in transforms (#56696)
This adds support for `terms` and `rare_terms` aggs in transforms.
The default behavior is that the results are collapsed in the following manner:
`<AGG_NAME>.<BUCKET_NAME>.<SUBAGGS...>...`
Or if no sub aggs exist
`<AGG_NAME>.<BUCKET_NAME>.<_doc_count>`
The mapping is also defined as `flattened` by default. This is to avoid field explosion while still providing (limited) search and aggregation capabilities.
This aggregation will perform normalizations of metrics
for a given series of data in the form of bucket values.
The aggregations supports the following normalizations
- rescale 0-1
- rescale 0-100
- percentage of sum
- mean normalization
- z-score normalization
- softmax normalization
To specify which normalization is to be used, it can be specified
in the normalize agg's `normalizer` field.
For example:
```
{
"normalize": {
"buckets_path": <>,
"normalizer": "percent"
}
}
```

This adds a few things to the `breakdown` of the profiler:
* `histogram` aggregations now contain `total_buckets` which is the
count of buckets that they collected. This could be useful when
debugging a histogram inside of another bucketing agg that is fairly
selective.
* All bucketing aggs that can delay their sub-aggregations will now add
a list of delayed sub-aggregations. This is useful because we
sometimes have fairly involved logic around which sub-aggregations get
delayed and this will save you from having to guess.
* Aggregtations wrapped in the `MultiBucketAggregatorWrapper` can't
accurately add anything to the breakdown. Instead they the wrapper
adds a marker entry `"multi_bucket_aggregator_wrapper": true` so we
can be quickly pick out such aggregations when debugging.
It also fixes a bug where `_count` breakdown entries were contributing
to the overall `time_in_nanos`. They didn't add a large amount of time
so it is unlikely that this caused a big problem, but I was there.
To support the arbitrary breakdown data this reworks the profiler so
that the `breakdown` can contain any data that is supported by
`StreamOutput#writeGenericValue(Object)` and
`XContentBuilder#value(Object)`.
This optional parameter can only be a string. To test out a transient custom
analysis chain, users are expected to use the 'tokenizer', 'filter', and
'char_filter' parameters.
Today we report some statistics in terms of Lucene-level documents, which
differ from Elasticsearch-level documents in a number of ways and include
things like document tombstones which users cannot directly observe. This
commit clarifies the internal nature of these statistics.

Notes that you cannot use EQL in ES to search the values of `nested`
fields or their sub-fields. However, indices containing `nested` field
mappings are otherwise supported.
This is a backport of #55884 with redirects removed.
Changes:
* Adds an abbreviated title for the search API page.
* Removes the following invalid query parameters:
* `analyzer`
* `analyze_wildcard`
* `default_operator`
* `df`
* `lenient`
* `suggest_mode`
* `suggest_size`
* Replaces the URI search page's query parameter docs with a xref
* Updates the headings of several examples
The following settings are now no-ops:
* xpack.flattened.enabled
* xpack.logstash.enabled
* xpack.rollup.enabled
* xpack.slm.enabled
* xpack.sql.enabled
* xpack.transform.enabled
* xpack.vectors.enabled
Since these settings no longer need to be checked, we can remove settings
parameters from a number of constructors and methods, and do so in this
commit.
We also update documentation to remove references to these settings.
Our upgrade docs don't mention the upgrade assistant, which can be

This PR implements the following changes to make ML model snapshot
retention more flexible in advance of adding a UI for the feature in
an upcoming release.
- The default for `model_snapshot_retention_days` for new jobs is now
10 instead of 1
- There is a new job setting, `daily_model_snapshot_retention_after_days`,
that defaults to 1 for new jobs and `model_snapshot_retention_days`
for pre-7.8 jobs
- For days that are older than `model_snapshot_retention_days`, all
model snapshots are deleted as before
- For days that are in between `daily_model_snapshot_retention_after_days`
and `model_snapshot_retention_days` all but the first model snapshot
for that day are deleted
- The `retain` setting of model snapshots is still respected to allow
selected model snapshots to be retained indefinitely
Backport of #56125
Per #54411, we plan to handle case sensitivity via a parameter for the
EQL search API (with the possible exception of the `between` function).
This removes references and examples related to case sensitivity from
the EQL functions docs.
Previously, when the timezone was missing from the datetime string
and the pattern, UTC was used, instead of the session defined timezone.
Moreover, if a timezone was included in the datetime string and the
pattern then this timezone was used. To have a consistent behaviour
the resulting datetime will always be converted to the session defined
timezone, e.g.:
```
SELECT DATETIME_PARSE('2020-05-04 10:20:30.123 +02:00', 'HH:mm:ss dd/MM/uuuu VV') AS datetime;
```
with `time_zone` set to `-03:00` will result in
```
2020-05-04T05:20:40.123-03:00
```

* Delay warning about missing x-pack (#54265)
Currently, when monitoring is enabled in a freshly-installed cluster,
the non-master nodes log a warning message indicating that master may
not have x-pack installed. The message is often printed even when the
master does have x-pack installed but takes some time to setup the local
exporter for monitoring. This commit adds the local exporter setting
`wait_master.timeout` which defaults to 30 seconds. The setting
configures the time that the non-master nodes should wait for master to
setup monitoring. After the time elapses, they log a message to the user
about possible missing x-pack installation on master.
The logging of this warning was moved from `resolveBulk()` to
`openBulk()` since `resolveBulk()` is called only on cluster updates and
the message might not be logged until a new cluster update occurs.

out for turbulence and failures
* Docs for making deprecated setting a no-op
I see occasional confusion about the explanations emitted by the same-shard
allocation decider, particularly amongst new users setting up a single-node
cluster and trying to determine why their cluster has `yellow` health. For
example:
the shard cannot be allocated to the same node on which a copy of the shard
already exists
This is technically correct but it's quite a complicated sentence. Also, by
starting with "the shard cannot be allocated" it makes it sound like this is
the problem, whereas in fact this message is a good thing and users should
typically focus their attention elsewhere.
This commit simplifies the wording of these messages and makes them sound more
positive, for example:
a copy of this shard is already allocated to this node

This has no practical impact on users since frozen indices are the only
throttled indices today. However this has an impact on upcoming features
that would use search throttling.
Filtering out throttled indices made sense a couple years ago, but as
we're now improving support for slow requests with `_async_search` and
exploring ways to reduce storage costs, this feature has most likely
become a trap, that we'd like to not have with upcoming features that
would use search throttling.

* An overview of why stemming is helpful in search
* Algorithmic vs. dictionary stemming
* Token filters used to control stemming, such as `stemmer_override`, `keyword_marker`, and `conditional`
The example looks the same as in the previous section although it should use the
"fuzziness" parameter. This seems to be okay on 6.8 and master and was probably
only forgotten to port to 7.x branches.
This adds a validation to VSParserHelper to ensure that a field or
script or both are specified by the user. This is technically
required today already, but throws an exception much deeper
in the agg framework and has a very unintuitive error for the user
(as well as eating more resources instead of failing early)

The ML info endpoint returns the max_model_memory_limit setting
if one is configured. However, it is still possible to create
a job that cannot run anywhere in the current cluster because
no node in the cluster has enough memory to accommodate it.
This change adds an extra piece of information,
limits.effective_max_model_memory_limit, to the ML info
response that returns the biggest model memory limit that could
be run in the current cluster assuming no other jobs were
running.
The idea is that the ML UI will be able to warn users who try to
create jobs with higher model memory limits that their jobs will
not be able to start unless they add a bigger ML node to their
cluster.
Backport of #55529
Adds a "node" field to the response from the following endpoints:
1. Open anomaly detection job
2. Start datafeed
3. Start data frame analytics job
If the job or datafeed is assigned to a node immediately then
this field will return the ID of that node.
In the case where a job or datafeed is opened or started lazily
the node field will contain an empty string. Clients that want
to test whether a job or datafeed was opened or started lazily
can therefore check for this.

~314MB of inflated JSON, ~66MB when compressed, ~177MB of heap.
With the chunking sizes of `16 * 1024 * 1024` its compressed string could be partitioned to 5 documents.
Supporting models 20 times this size (compressed) seems adequate for now.
This commit adds a new querystring parameter on the following APIs:
- Index
- Update
- Bulk
- Create Index
- Rollover
These APIs now support a `?prefer_v2_templates=true|false` flag. This flag changes the preference
creation to use either V2 index templates or V1 templates. This flag defaults to `false` and will be
changed to `true` for 8.0+ in subsequent work.
Additionally, setting this flag internally sets the `index.prefer_v2_templates` index-level setting.
This setting is used so that actions that automatically create a new index (things like rollover
initiated by ILM) will inherit the preference from the original index. This setting is dynamic so
that a transition from v1 to v2 templates can occur for long-running indices grouped by an alias
performing periodic rollover.
This also adds support for sending this parameter to the High Level Rest Client.

We believe there's no longer a need to be able to disable basic-license
features completely using the "xpack.*.enabled" settings. If users don't
want to use those features, they simply don't need to use them. Having
such features always available lets us build more complex features that
assume basic-license features are present.
This commit deprecates settings of the form "xpack.*.enabled" for
basic-license features, excluding "security", which is a special case.
It also removes deprecated settings from integration tests and unit
tests where they're not directly relevant; e.g. monitoring and ILM are
no longer disabled in many integration tests.
PR #51260 moved usage counts about mapping field types and analysis to
the `_cluster/stats` API.
This documents those stats in the response section of the cluster stats
API docs.
Implement the use of scalar functions inside aggregate functions.
This allows for complex expressions inside aggregations, with or without
GROUBY as well as with or without a HAVING clause. e.g.:
```
SELECT MAX(CASE WHEN a IS NULL then -1 ELSE abs(a * 10) + 1 END) AS max, b
FROM test
GROUP BY b
HAVING MAX(CASE WHEN a IS NULL then -1 ELSE abs(a * 10) + 1 END) > 5
```
Scalar functions are still not allowed for `KURTOSIS` and `SKEWNESS` as
this is currently not implemented on the ElasticSearch side.

* [ML] adding prediction_field_type to inference config (#55128)
Data frame analytics dynamically determines the classification field type. This field type then dictates the encoded JSON that is written to Elasticsearch.
Inference needs to know about this field type so that it may provide the EXACT SAME predicted values as analytics.
Here is added a new field `prediction_field_type` which indicates the desired type. Options are: `string` (DEFAULT), `number`, `boolean` (where close_to(1.0) == true, false otherwise).
Analytics provides the default `prediction_field_type` when the model is created from the process.
Updates the supported upgrade path table in [Upgrade Elasticsearch][0]
to include a new row for maintenance releases. For example, this row
covers upgrading from 7.6.0 to 7.6.2.

example, the new row will display for the 7.7.1 release but not the
7.7.0 release.

Provides basic repository-level stats that will allow us to get some insight into how many

The secure_settings_password was never taken into consideration in
the ReloadSecureSettings API. This commit fixes that and adds
necessary REST layer testing. Doing so, it also:
- Allows TestClusters to have a password protected keystore
so that it can be set for tests.
- Adds a parameter to the run task so that elastisearch can
be run with a password protected keystore from source.
The usage of local parameter for GetFieldMappingRequest has been removed from the underlying transport action since v2.0.
This PR deprecates the parameter from rest layer. It will be removed in next major version.
Changes boilerplate sentence of "If using a field as the argument, this
parameter only supports..." to "...this parameter supports only...".
The latter is a bit more clear and readable.
Some of these characters are special to Asciidoctor and they ruin the

characters without Asciidoctor applying any subtitutions to them. This

We found some problems during the test.
Data: 200Million docs, 1 shard, 0 replica
hits | avg | sum | value_count |
----------- | ------- | ------- | ----------- |
20,000 | .038s | .033s | .063s |
200,000 | .127s | .125s | .334s |
2,000,000 | .789s | .729s | 3.176s |
20,000,000 | 4.200s | 3.239s | 22.787s |
200,000,000 | 21.000s | 22.000s | 154.917s |
The performance of `avg`, `sum` and other is very close when performing
statistics, but the performance of `value_count` has always been poor,
even not on an order of magnitude. Based on some common-sense knowledge,
we think that `value_count` and sum are similar operations, and the time
consumed should be the same. Therefore, we have discussed the agg
of `value_count`.
The principle of counting in es is to traverse the field of each
document. If the field is an ordinary value, the count value is
increased by 1. If it is an array type, the count value is increased
by n. However, the problem lies in traversing each document and taking
out the field, which changes from disk to an object in the Java
language. We summarize its current problems with Elasticsearch as:
- Number cast to string overhead, and GC problems caused by a large
number of strings
- After the number type is converted to string, sorting and other
unnecessary operations are performed
Here is the proof of type conversion overhead.
```
// Java long to string source code, getChars is very time-consuming.
public static String toString(long i) {
int size = stringSize(i);
if (COMPACT_STRINGS) {
byte[] buf = new byte[size];
getChars(i, size, buf);
return new String(buf, LATIN1);
} else {
byte[] buf = new byte[size * 2];
StringUTF16.getChars(i, size, buf);
return new String(buf, UTF16);
}
}
```
test type | average | min | max | sum
------------ | ------- | ---- | ----------- | -------
double->long | 32.2ns | 28ns | 0.024ms | 3.22s
long->double | 31.9ns | 28ns | 0.036ms | 3.19s
long->String | 163.8ns | 93ns | 1921 ms | 16.3s
particularly serious.
Our optimization code is actually very simple. It is to manage different
types separately, instead of uniformly converting to string unified
processing. We added type identification in ValueCountAggregator, and
made special treatment for number and geopoint types to cancel their
type conversion. Because the string type is reduced and the string
constant is reduced, the improvement effect is very obvious.
hits | avg | sum | value_count | value_count | value_count | value_count | value_count | value_count |
| | | double | double | keyword | keyword | geo_point | geo_point |
| | | before | after | before | after | before | after |
----------- | ------- | ------- | ----------- | ----------- | ----------- | ----------- | ----------- | ----------- |
20,000 | 38s | .033s | .063s | .026s | .030s | .030s | .038s | .015s |

- The results are more in line with common sense. `value_count` is about
the same as `avg`, `sum`, etc., or even lower than these. Previously,
`value_count` was much larger than avg and sum, and it was not even an
order of magnitude when the amount of data was large.
- When calculating numeric types such as `double` and `long`, the
performance is improved by about 8 to 9 times; when calculating the
`geo_point` type, the performance is improved by 18 to 20 times.
The use of available processors, the terminology, and the settings
around it have evolved over time. This commit cleans up some places in

This commit adds a top-level link to the autoscaling API reference page
to the API docs. Additionally, we add a conditional guard on the API
pages to only include them in development builds of the docs.
EQL functions are an easy way for users to transform indexed data
at search time. However, using multiple functions can make
queries difficult to write and slows search speeds.
Users can circumvent this by indexing fields containing the transformed
data, but that usually slows index speeds.
This adds a related tip and example covering these tradeoffs.
This commit is the first in a series of commits that introduces
autoscaling policies, and APIs for working with them. For now, we
introduce the basic infrastructure, and a single API for putting an
autoscaling policy. We will follow in rapid succession with APIs for
getting, and deleting autoscaling policies.
This is a simple naming change PR, to fix the fact that "metadata" is a

example, METADATA instead of META_DATA if we were trying to be
consistent with MetaData (although METADATA is correct when considered
in the context of "metadata"). This was a simple find and replace across
the code base, only taking a few minutes to fix this naming issue
forever.

This setting is not documented and has dubious value since it means
there can be nodes in the cluster (non-data and non-master nodes) that
do not have persistent node IDs. This does not have any use cases so
this commit removes the setting.
The failing suggester documentation test was expecting specific scores in the
test response, which is fragile implementation details that e.g. can change with
different lucene versions and generally shouldn't be done in documentation test.
Instead we usually replace the float values in the output response by the ones
in the actual response.

Today the keystore add-file command can only handle adding a single

Documents missing data types for several response parameters returned

Submit async search forces pre_filter_shard_size for the underlying search that it creates.
With this commit we also prevent users from overriding such default as part of request validation.
It is possible for ML jobs to open lazily if the "allow_lazy_open"

This commit fixes the bug that prevented datafeeds for jobs lazily
waiting assignment from being started. The state of such datafeeds
is "starting", and they can be stopped by the stop datafeed API
while in this state with or without force.
Backport of #53918
add 2 additional stats: processing time and processing total which capture the
time spent for processing results and how often it ran. The 2 new stats
correspond to the existing indexing and search stats. Together with indexing
and search this now allows the user to see the full picture, all 3 stages.
This is the first in a series of commits that will introduce the
autoscaling deciders framework. This commit introduces the basic
framework for representing autoscaling decisions.
This commit changes the pre_filter_shard_size default from 128 to unspecified.
This allows to apply heuristics based on the request and the target indices when deciding
whether the can match phase should run or not. When unspecified, this pr runs the can match phase
automatically if one of these conditions is met:
* The request targets more than 128 shards.
* The request contains read-only indices.
* The primary sort of the query targets an indexed field.
Users can opt-out from this behavior by setting the `pre_filter_shard_size` to a static value.
Closes#39835
It seemed confusing for users that our top-level mapping page still had a
prominent section named 'Mapping Type'. This PR reworks the docs to remove this
reference and adds a note about types removal (similar to the note we added to
other APIs like put mapping).
* Get Async Search: omit _clusters section when empty (#53907)
The _clusters section is omitted by the search API whenever no remote clusters are searched. Async search should do the same, but Get Async Search returns a deserialized response, hence a weird `_clusters` section with all values set to `0` gets returned instead. In fact the recreated Clusters object is not the same object as the EMPTY constant, yet it has the same content.
This commit addresses this by changing the comparison in the `toXContent` method to not print out the section if the number of total clusters is `0`.
* Async search: remove version from response (#53960)
The goal of the version field was to quickly show when you can expect to find something new in the search response, compared to when nothing has changed. This can also be done by looking at the `_shards` section and `num_reduce_phases` returned with the search response. In fact when there has been one or more additional reduction of the results, you can expect new results in the search response. Otherwise, the `_shards` section could notify of additional failures of shards that have completed the query, but that is not a guarantee that their results will be exposed (only when the following partial reduction is performed their results will be available).
That said this commit clarifies this in the docs and removes the version field from the async search response
* Async Search: replicas to auto expand from 0 to 1 (#53964)
This way single node clusters that are green don't go yellow once async search is used, while
all the others still have one replica.
* [DOCS] address timing issue in async search docs tests (#53910)
The docs snippets for submit async search have proven difficult to test as it is not possible to guarantee that you get a response that is not final, even when providing `wait_for_completion=0`. In the docs we want to show though a proper long-running query, and its first response should be partial rather than final.
With this commit we adapt the docs snippets to show a partial response, and replace under the hood all that's needed to make the snippets tests succeed when we get a final response. Also, increased the timeout so we always get a final response.
