This commit brings the benefits of the `count` search type to search requests
that have a `size` of 0:
- a single round-trip to shards (no fetch phase)
- ability to use the query cache
Since `count` now provides no benefits over `query_then_fetch`, it has been
deprecated.
Close#7630
Whenever we have an api that supports GET with a body, we always support the POST method too, as well as providing the body as a query_string parameter called `source`. Our REST spec should reflect this convention. FIxed them and introduced a hard check at parse time in our Java REST tests runner, which will cause the tests to fail if spec are not compliant.
Closes#9629
Java Builder apis drop old “len” methods in favour of new “length”
Rest APIs support both old “len: and new “length” forms using new ParseField class to a) provide compiler-checked consistency between Builder and Parser classes and
b) a common means of handling deprecated syntax in the DSL.
Documentation and rest specs only document the new “*length” forms
Closes#4083
