Today when we load the Netty plugins, we indirectly cause several Netty
classes to initialize. This is because we attempt to load some classes
by name, and loading these classes is done in a way that triggers a long
chain of class initializers within Netty. We should not do this, this
can lead to log messages before the logger is loader, and it leads to
initialization in cases when the classes would never be needed (for
example, Netty 3 class initialization is never needed if Netty 4 is
used, and vice versa). This commit avoids this early initialization of
these classes by removing the need for the early loading.

This commit updates Jackson to the 2.8.1 version, which is more strict when it comes to build objects. It also adds the snakeyaml dependency that was previously shaded in jackson libs.
It also closes#18076
When closing a transport client that depends on Netty 4, interrupted
exceptions can be thrown while shutting down some Netty threads. This
commit refactors the handling of these exceptions to finish shutting
down and then just restore the interrupted status.
Today if the PreBuiltTransportClient is using Netty 4 transport, on
shutdown some Netty 4 threads could linger. This commit causes the
client to wait for these threads to shutdown upon termination.
This change does three things:
1. Makes PreBuiltTransportClientTests run since it was silently
failing on a missing dependency
2. Makes PreBuiltTransportClientTests pass
3. Removes the http.type and transport.type from being set in the
transport clients additional settings since these are set to `netty4` by
default anyway.
* Allow to run client benchmark as an uberjar
* Busy wait to avoid accidental skew on low target throughput rates
* Trigger and wait for full GC to happen between trials
* Add missing SuppressForbidden to allow System.gc in client benchmark
Consuming the response body to make it part of the exception message means that it may not be readable anymore later, depending on whether the entity is repeatable or not. Turns out that the response body tells a lot about the error itself, and considering that we don't expect bodies to be incredibly big for errors, we can wrap the entity into a BufferedHttpEntity to make it repeatable.
Closes#19622
Simplify Sniffer initialization and automatically create the default HostsSniffer
Take Sniffer.Builder out to its own top level class. Remove HostsSniffer.Builder and let SnifferBuilder create the default HostsSniffer. This simplifies the Sniffer initialization as the HostsSniffer is not mandatory anymore. It can still be specified though in case the configuration needs to be changed or a different impl has to be used. Also make HostsSniffer an interface.
It can happen that the list of healthy hosts is empty, then we get one from the blacklist. but some other operation might have sneaked in and emptied the blacklist in the meantime, so we have to retry till we manage to get some host, either from the healthy list or from the blacklist.
Throw explicit IllegalStateException in unexpected situations, like where both response and exception are set, or when both are unset. Add unit test for SyncResponseListener.
We throw IOException, which is the exception that is going to be thrown in 99% of the cases. A more generic exception can happen, and if it is a runtime one we just let it bubble up as is, otherwise we wrap it into runtime one so that we don't require to catch Exception everywhere, which seems odd.
Also adjusted javadocs for all performRequest methods
We keep the default async client behaviour like in BasicAsyncResponseConsumer, but we lower the maximum size of the buffer from Integer.MAX_VALUE (2GB) to 10 MB. This way users will realize they are buffering big responses in heap hence they'll know they have to do something about it, either write their own response consumer or increase the buffer size limit by providing their manually creeted instance of HeapBufferedAsyncResponseConsumer (constructor accept a bufferLimit int argument).
Also delayed call to HttpAsyncClient#start so that if something goes wrong while creating the RestClient, the http client threads don't linger. In fact, if the constructor fails it is not possible to call close against the RestClient.
HttpClientConfigCallback#customizeHttpClient now also returns the HttpClientBuilder so it can be completely replaced
RequestConfigCallback#customizeRequestConfig now also returns the HttpClientBuilder so it can be completely replaced
The new method accepts the usual parameters (method, endpoint, params, entity and headers) plus a response listener and an async response consumer. Shortcut methods are also added that don't require params, entity and the async response consumer optional.
There are a few relevant api changes as a consequence of the move to async client that affect sync methods:
- Response doesn't implement Closeable anymore, responses don't need to be closed
- performRequest throws Exception rather than just IOException, as that is the the exception that we get from the FutureCallback#failed method in the async http client
- ssl configuration is a bit simpler, one only needs to call setSSLStrategy from a custom HttpClientConfigCallback, that doesn't end up overridng any other default around connection pooling (it used to happen with the sync client and make ssl configuration more complex)
Relates to #19055
The `client/transport` project adds a new jar build project that
pulls in all dependencies and configures all required modules.
Preinstalled modules are:
* transport-netty
* lang-mustache
* reindex
* percolator
The `TransportClient` classes are still in core
while `TransportClient.Builder` has only a protected construcutor
such that users are redirected to use the new `TransportClientBuilder`
from the new jar.
Closes#19412
The callback replaces the ability to fully replace the http client instance. By doing that, one used to lose any default that the RestClient had set for the underlying http client. Given that you'd usually override one or two things only, like a couple of timeout values, the ssl factory or the default credentials providers, it is not uder friendly if by doing that users end up replacing the whole http client instance and lose any default set by us.
Users wanting to send a request by providing only its method and endpoint, effectively the only two required arguments, shouldn't need to pass in an empty map and a null entity for the body. While at it we can also add a variant to send requests by specifying only method, endpoint and params, but not body. Headers remain a vararg as last argument, so they can always optionally be provided.
Closes#19312
