[Docs] audit logfile structured format (#34584)
Documents the new structured logfile format for auditing
that was introduced by #31931. Most changes herein
are for 6.x . In 7.0 the deprecated format is gone and a
follow-up PR is in order.

Watcher: Validate email adresses when storing a watch (#34042)
Right now, watches fail on runtime, when invalid email addresses are
used.

All those fields can be checked on parsing, if no mustache is used in
any email address template. In that case we can return immediate
feedback, that invalid email addresses should not be specified when
trying to store a watch.

Rollup: Consolidate rollup cleanup for http tests (#34342)
This moves the rollup cleanup code for http tests from the high level rest
client into the test framework and then entirely removes the rollup cleanup
code for http tests that lived in x-pack. This is nice because it
consolidates the cleanup into one spot, automatically invokes the cleanup
without the test having to know that it is "about rollup", and should allow
us to run the rollup docs tests.

Part of #34530

Support PKCS#11 tokens as keystores and truststores (#34063)
This enables Elasticsearch to use the JVM-wide configured
PKCS#11 token as a keystore or a truststore for its TLS configuration.
The JVM is assumed to be configured accordingly with the appropriate
Security Provider implementation that supports PKCS#11 tokens.
For the PKCS#11 token to be used as a keystore or a truststore for an
SSLConfiguration, the .keystore.type or .truststore.type must be
explicitly set to pkcs11 in the configuration.
The fact that the PKCS#11 token configuration is JVM wide implies that
there is only one available keystore and truststore that can be used by TLS
configurations in Elasticsearch.
The PIN for the PKCS#11 token can be set as a truststore parameter in
Elasticsearch or as a JVM parameter ( -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword).

The basic goal of enabling PKCS#11 token support is to allow PKCS#11-NSS in
FIPS mode to be used as a FIPS 140-2 enabled Security Provider.

[Kerberos] Add realm name & UPN to user metadata (#33338)
We have a Kerberos setting to remove realm part from the user
principal name (remove_realm_name). If this is true then
the realm name is removed to form username but in the process,
the realm name is lost. For scenarios like Kerberos cross-realm
authentication, one could make use of the realm name to determine
role mapping for users coming from different realms.
This commit adds user metadata for kerberos_realm and
kerberos_user_principal_name.

Security: remove wrapping in put user response (#33512)
This change removes the wrapping of the created field in the put user
response. The created field was added as a top level field in #32332,
while also still being wrapped within the `user` object of the
response. Since the value is available in both formats in 6.x, we can
remove the wrapped version for 7.0.

Generalize search.remote settings to cluster.remote (#33413)
With features like CCR building on the CCS infrastructure, the settings
prefix search.remote makes less sense as the namespace for these remote
cluster settings than does a more general namespace like
cluster.remote. This commit replaces these settings with cluster.remote
with a fallback to the deprecated settings search.remote.

HLRest: add put user API (#32332)
This commit adds a security client to the high level rest client, which
includes an implementation for the put user api. As part of these
changes, a new request and response class have been added that are
specific to the high level rest client. One change here is that the response
was previously wrapped inside a user object. The plan is to remove this
wrapping and this PR adds an unwrapped response outside of the user
object so we can remove the user object later on.

See #29827

Add support for "authorization_realms" (#33262)
Authorization Realms allow an authenticating realm to delegate the task
of constructing a User object (with name, roles, etc) to one or more
other realms.

E.g. A client could authenticate using PKI, but then delegate to an LDAP
realm. The LDAP realm performs a "lookup" by principal, and then does
regular role-mapping from the discovered user.

This commit includes:
- authorization_realm support in the pki, ldap, saml & kerberos realms
- docs for authorization_realms
- checks that there are no "authorization chains"
   (whereby "realm-a" delegates to "realm-b", but "realm-b" delegates to "realm-c")

Authorization realms is a platinum feature.

[Rollup] Only allow aggregating on multiples of configured interval (#32052)
We need to limit the search request aggregations to whole multiples
of the configured interval for both histogram and date_histogram.
Otherwise, agg buckets won't overlap with the rolled up buckets
and the results will be incorrect.

For histogram, the validation is very simple: request must be >= the config,
and modulo evenly.

Dates are more tricky.
- If both request and config are fixed dates, we can convert to millis
and treat them just like the histo
- If both are calendar, we make sure the request is >= the config with
a static lookup map that ranks the calendar values relatively.  All
calendar units are "singles", so they are evenly divisible already
- We disallow any other combination (one fixed, one calendar, etc)

Token API supports the client_credentials grant (#33106)
This change adds support for the client credentials grant type to the
token api. The client credentials grant allows for a client to
authenticate with the authorization server and obtain a token to access
as itself. Per RFC 6749, a refresh token should not be included with
the access token and as such a refresh token is not issued when the
client credentials grant is used.

The addition of the client credentials grant will allow users
authenticated with mechanisms such as kerberos or PKI to obtain a token
that can be used for subsequent access.

[Rollup] Return empty response when aggs are missing (#32796)
If a search request doesn't contain aggs (or an empty agg object),
we should just retun an empty response.  This is how the normal search
API works if you specify zero hits and empty aggs.

The existing behavior throws an exception because it tries to send
an empty msearch.

Build: Rework shadow plugin configuration (#32409)
This reworks how we configure the `shadow` plugin in the build. The major
change is that we no longer bundle dependencies in the `compile` configuration,
instead we bundle dependencies in the new `bundle` configuration. This feels
more right because it is a little more "opt in" rather than "opt out" and the
name of the `bundle` configuration is a little more obvious.

As an neat side effect of this, the `runtimeElements` configuration used when
one project depends on another now contains exactly the dependencies needed
to run the project so you no longer need to reference projects that use the
shadow plugin like this:

```
testCompile project(path: ':client:rest-high-level', configuration: 'shadow')
```

You can instead use the much more normal:

```
testCompile "org.elasticsearch.client:elasticsearch-rest-high-level-client:${version}"
```

[DOCS] Add Kerberos troubleshooting documentation (#32803)
This commit adds troubleshooting section for Kerberos.
Most of the times the problems seen are caused due to invalid
configurations like keytab missing principals or credentials
not up to date. Time synchronization is an important part for
Kerberos infrastructure and the time skew can cause problems.
To debug further documentation explains how to enable JAAS
Kerberos login module debugging and Kerberos/SPNEGO debugging
by setting JVM system properties.
