IndicesStore checks for `allocated elsewhere` for every shard not alocated on the local node
On each cluster-state update we check on the local node if we can delete some shards content.
For this we linearly walk all shards and check if they are allocated and started on another node
and if we can delete them locally. if we can delete them locally we go and ask other nodes if we can
delete them and then if the shared IS active elsewhere issue a state update task to delete it. Yet,
there is a bug in IndicesService#canDeleteShardContent which returns `true` even if that shards
datapath doesn't exist on the node which causes tons of unnecessary node to node communication and
as many state update task to be issued. This can have large impact on the cluster state processing
speed.
**NOTE:** This only happens for shards that have at least one shard allocated on the node ie. if an `IndexService` exists.

Today we do a force flush which wipes the sync ID if there is one which
can cause the lost of all benefits of the sync ID ie. fast recovery.
This commit adds a check to renew the sync ID if possible. The flush call
is now also not forced since the IW will show pending changes if the forceMerge added new segments.
if we keep using force we will wipe the sync ID even if no renew was actually needed.
Closes#17019
Reenable CreateIndexIT#testCreateAndDeleteIndexConcurrently
Since #16442 is merged we should be able to reenable this test as a followup
of #15853 - all issues blocking it have been resolved I guess.
Add infrastructure to run REST tests on a multi-version cluster
This change adds the infrastructure to run the rest tests on a multi-node
cluster that users 2 different minor versions of elasticsearch. It doesn't implement
any dedicated BWC tests but rather leverages the existing REST tests.
Since we don't have a real version to test against, the tests uses the current version
until the first minor / RC is released to ensure the infrastructure works.
Given the amount of problems this change already found I think it's worth having this run with our test suite by default. The structure of this infra will likely change over time but for now it's a step into the right direction. We will likely want to split it up into integTests and integBwcTests etc. so each plugin can have it's own bwc tests but that's left for future refactoring.
After another round of input from @cbuescher this adds a few more sanity
checks to request parsing.
In addition adds (back) support for the reverse option.
Resolve index names to Index instances early
Today index names are often resolved lazily, only when they are really
needed. This can be problematic especially when it gets to mapping updates
etc. when a node sends a mapping update to the master but while the request
is in-flight the index changes for whatever reason we would still apply the update
since we use the name of the index to identify the index in the clusterstate.
The problem is that index names can be reused which happens in practice and sometimes
even in a automated way rendering this problem as realistic.
In this change we resolve the index including it's UUID as early as possible in places
where changes to the clusterstate are possible. For instance mapping updates on a node use a
concrete index rather than it's name and the master will fail the mapping update iff
the index can't be found by it's <name, uuid> tuple.
Closes#17048

Changes:
- no more option to configure eager/lazy loading of the norms (useless now
that orms are disk-based)
- only the `string`, `text` and `keyword` fields support the `norms` setting
- the `norms` setting takes a boolean that decides whether norms should be
stored in the index but old options are still supported to give users time
to upgrade
- setting a `boost` no longer implicitely enables norms (for new indices only,
this is still needed for old indices)
Today, certain bootstrap properties are set and read via system
properties. This action-at-distance way of managing these properties is
rather confusing, and completely unnecessary. But another problem exists
with setting these as system properties. Namely, these system properties
are interpreted as Elasticsearch settings, not all of which are
registered. This leads to Elasticsearch failing to startup if any of
these special properties are set. Instead, these properties should be
kept as local as possible, and passed around as method parameters where
needed. This eliminates the action-at-distance way of handling these
properties, and eliminates the need to register these non-setting
properties. This commit does exactly that.
Additionally, today we use the "-D" command line flag to set the
properties, but this is confusing because "-D" is a special flag to the
JVM for setting system properties. This creates confusion because some
"-D" properties should be passed via arguments to the JVM (so via
ES_JAVA_OPTS), and some should be passed as arguments to
Elasticsearch. This commit changes the "-D" flag for Elasticsearch
settings to "-E".
