Since we disable allocation using persistent settings, we should be consistent and remove
the setting from the persistent storage. Otherwise an accidental restart will lead for shards
not being allocated.

Today when an index is created from shrinking or splitting an existing
index, the target index inherits almost none of the source index
settings. This is surprising and a hassle for operators managing such
indices. Given this is the default behavior, we can not simply change
it. Instead, we start by introducing the ability to copy settings. This
flag can be set on the REST API or on the transport layer and it has the
behavior that it copies all settings from the source except non-copyable
settings (a property of a setting introduced in this
change). Additionally, settings on the request will always override.
This change is the first step in our adventure:
- this flag is added here in 7.0.0 and immediately deprecated
- this flag will be backported to 6.4.0 and remain deprecated
- then, we will remove the ability to set this flag to false in 7.0.0
- finally, in 8.0.0 we will remove this flag and the only behavior will
be for settings to be copied
Currently, the only way to get the REST response for the `/_cluster/state`
call to return the `cluster_uuid` is to request the `metadata` metrics,
which is one of the most expensive response structures. However, external
monitoring agents will likely want the `cluster_uuid` to correlate the
response with other API responses whether or not they want cluster
metadata.
Add yet another warning about data loss to the introductory paragraph about the
unsafe commands. Also move this paragraph next to the details of the unsafe
commands, below the section on the `retry_failed` flag.
Be more specific about how to use the URI parameters and in-body flags.
Clarify statements about when rebalancing takes place (i.e. it respects
settings)
Resolves#16113.
Today when a resize operation is performed, we copy the analysis,
similarity, and sort settings from the source index. It is possible for
the resize request to include additional index settings including
analysis, similarity, and sort settings. We reject sort settings when
validating the request. However, we silently ignore analysis and
similarity settings on the request that are already set on the source
index. Since it is possible to change the analysis and similarity
settings on an existing index, this should be considered a bug and the
sort of leniency that we abhor. This commit addresses this bug by
allowing the request analysis/similarity settings to override the
existing analysis/similarity settings on the target.
A previous change modified the output of the thread pool info contained
in the nodes info API. This commit adds a note to the migration docs for
this change.
A NullPointerException is thrown when trying to create or delete
a snapshot in a repository that has been written to by an older

This commit changes the parsing of the repository index file so that
it now detects a corrupted index file and fails early the snapshot
operation.

We already had *some* documentation of the batch nature of `reindex` and
friends but it wasn't super obvious how it interacted with the

This metric previously existed for backwards compatibility reasons
although the suggest stats were folded into search stats. This metric
was deprecated in 6.3.0 and this commit removes them for 7.0.0.
This commit adds the distribution type to the startup scripts so that we
can discern from log output and the main response the type of the
distribution (deb/rpm/tar/zip).
This commit adds the distribution flavor (default versus oss) to the
build process which is passed through the startup scripts to
Elasticsearch. This change will be used to customize the message on
attempting to install/remove x-pack based on the distribution flavor.
This commit makes x-pack a module and adds it to the default
distrubtion. It also creates distributions for zip, tar, deb and rpm
which contain only oss code.
The suggest stats were folded into the search stats as part of the
indices stats API in 5.0.0. However, the suggest metric remained as a
synonym for the search metric for BWC reasons. This commit deprecates
usage of the suggest metric on the indices stats API.
Similarly, due to the changes to fold the suggest stats into the search
stats, requesting the suggest index metric on the indices metric on the
nodes stats API has produced an empty object as the response since
5.0.0. This commit deprecates this index metric on the indices metric on
the nodes stats API.
The name of the bulk thread pool was renamed to "write" with "bulk" as a
fallback name. This change was made in 6.x for BWC reasons yet in 7.0.0
we are removing this fallback. This commit removes this fallback for the
write thread pool.
This commit renames the bulk thread pool to the write thread pool. This
is to better reflect the fact that the underlying thread pool is used to
execute any document write request (single-document index/delete/update
requests, and bulk requests).
With this change, we add support for fallback settings
thread_pool.bulk.* which will be supported until 7.0.0.
We also add a system property so that the display name of the thread
pool remains as "bulk" if needed to avoid breaking users.
Now that single-document indexing requests are executed on the bulk
thread pool the index thread pool is no longer needed. This commit
removes this thread pool from Elasticsearch.
We want to remove the index thread pool as it is no longer needed since
single-document indexing requests are executed as bulk requests
now. Analyze requests are also executed on the index thread pool though
and they need a thread pool to execute on. The bulk thread does not seem
like the right thread pool, let us keep that thread pool conceptually
for bulk requests and free for bulk requests. None of the existing
thread pools make sense for analyze requests either. The generic thread
pool would be a terrible choice since it has an unbounded queue and that
is a bad idea for user-facing APIs. This commit introduces a small by
default (size=1, queue_size=16) thread pool for analyze requests.
CRUD: Parsing changes for UpdateRequest (#29293)
Use `ObjectParser` to parse `UpdateRequest` so we reject unknown fields
and drop support for the `_fields` parameter because it was deprecated
in 5.x.
Control max size and count of warning headers
Add a static persistent cluster level setting
"http.max_warning_header_count" to control the maximum number of
warning headers in client HTTP responses.
Defaults to unbounded.
Add a static persistent cluster level setting
"http.max_warning_header_size" to control the maximum total size of
warning headers in client HTTP responses.
Defaults to unbounded.
With every warning header that exceeds these limits,
a message will be logged in the main ES log,
and any more warning headers for this response will be
ignored.
Historically, the bootstrap checks used 2048 as the minimum limit for
the maximum number of threads. This limit was guided by the fact that
the number of processors was artificially capped at 32. This limit was
removed in 6.0.0 and the minimum limit was raised to 4096 to accommodate
this. However, the docs were not updated and this commit addresses that
miss.
This adds an `include_type_name` option to the `indices.create`,
`indices.get_mapping` and `indices.put_mapping` APIs, which defaults to `true`.
When set to `false`, then mappings will be returned directly in the body of
the `indices.get_mapping` API, without keying them by the type name, the
`indices.create` will expect mappings directly under the `mappings` key, and
the `indices.put_mapping` will use `_doc` as a type name and fail if a `type`
is provided explicitly.

Today we report thread pool info using a common object. This means that
we use a shared set of terminology that is not consistent with the
terminology used to the configure thread pools. This holds in particular
for the minimum and maximum number of threads in the thread pool where
we use the following terminology:
thread pool info | fixed | scaling
min core size
max max size
A previous change addressed this for the nodes info API. This commit
changes the display of thread pool info in the cat thread pool API too
to be dependent on the type of the thread pool so that we can align the
terminology in the output of thread pool info with the terminology used
to configure a thread pool.
This improves the way similarities are plugged in in order to:
- reject the classic similarity on 7.x indices and emit a deprecation
warning otherwise
- reject unkwown parameters on 7.x indices and emit a deprecation

that users can get deprecation warnings when they are doing something
that will become unsupported in the future.

I am not sure why we have this leniency for HTTP max content length, it
has been there since the beginning
(5ac51ee93f) with no explanation of its
source. That said, our philosophy today is different than the philosophy
of the past where Elasticsearch would be quite lenient in its handling
of settings and today we aim for predictability for both users and
us. This commit removes leniency in the parsing of
http.max_content_length.
Today this part of the documentation just says that Geo queries are not 100%
accurate, but in fact we can be more precise about which kinds of queries see
which kinds of error. This commit clarifies this point.
At time of writing, GeoJSON did not enforce a specific ordering of vertices in
a polygon, but it now does. We occasionally get reports of Elasticsearch
rejecting apparently-valid GeoJSON because of badly oriented polygons, and it's
helpful to be able to point at this bit of the documentation when responding.
As follow up to #28245 , this PR removes the logic for selecting the
right start commit from the Engine constructor in favor of explicitly
trimming them in the Store, before the engine is opened. This makes the
constructor in engine follow standard Lucene semantics and use the last
commit.
Relates #28245
Relates #29156
#28245 has introduced the utility class`EngineDiskUtils` with a set of methods to prepare/change
translog and lucene commit points. That util class bundled everything that's needed to create and
empty shard, bootstrap a shard from a lucene index that was just restored etc.
In order to safely do these manipulations, the util methods acquired the IndexWriter's lock. That
would sometime fail due to concurrent shard store fetching or other short activities that require the
files not to be changed while they read from them.
Since there is no way to wait on the index writer lock, the `Store` class has other locks to make
sure that once we try to acquire the IW lock, it will succeed. To side step this waiting problem, this
PR folds `EngineDiskUtils` into `Store`. Sadly this comes with a price - the store class doesn't and
shouldn't know about the translog. As such the logic is slightly less tight and callers have to do the
translog manipulations on their own.
This change refactors the composite aggregation to add an execution mode that visits documents in the order of the values
present in the leading source of the composite definition. This mode does not need to visit all documents since it can early terminate
the collection when the leading source value is greater than the lowest value in the queue.
Instead of collecting the documents in the order of their doc_id, this mode uses the inverted lists (or the bkd tree for numerics) to collect documents
in the order of the values present in the leading source.
For instance the following aggregation:
```
"composite" : {
"sources" : [
{ "value1": { "terms" : { "field": "timestamp", "order": "asc" } } }
],
"size": 10
}
```
... can use the field `timestamp` to collect the documents with the 10 lowest values for the field instead of visiting all documents.
For composite aggregation with more than one source the execution can early terminate as soon as one of the 10 lowest values produces enough
composite buckets. For instance if visiting the first two lowest timestamp created 10 composite buckets we can early terminate the collection since it
is guaranteed that the third lowest timestamp cannot create a composite key that compares lower than the one already visited.
This mode can execute iff:
* The leading source in the composite definition uses an indexed field of type `date` (works also with `date_histogram` source), `integer`, `long` or `keyword`.
* The query is a match_all query or a range query over the field that is used as the leading source in the composite definition.
* The sort order of the leading source is the natural order (ascending since postings and numerics are sorted in ascending order only).
If these conditions are not met this aggregation visits each document like any other agg.
The rank_eval documentation was missing an explanation of the parameter
`k` that controls the number of top hits that are used in the ranking evaluation.
Closes#29205
This enhancement adds Z value support (source only) to geo_shape fields. If vertices are provided with a third dimension, the third dimension is ignored for indexing but returned as part of source. Like beofre, any values greater than the 3rd dimension are ignored.

Closes#25551
This commit adds a new setting `cluster.persistent_tasks.allocation.enable`
that can be used to enable or disable the allocation of persistent tasks.
The setting accepts the values `all` (default) or `none`. When set to
none, the persistent tasks that are created (or that must be reassigned)
won't be assigned to a node but will reside in the cluster state with
a no "executor node" and a reason describing why it is not assigned:
```
"assignment" : {
"executor_node" : null,
"explanation" : "persistent task [foo/bar] cannot be assigned [no
persistent task assignments are allowed due to cluster settings]"
}
```
This will reject mapping updates to the `_default_` mapping with 7.x indices
and still emit a deprecation warning with 6.x indices.

Update allocation awareness docs
Today, the docs imply that if multiple attributes are specified the the
whole combination of values is considered as a single entity when

reformats some paragraphs to the right width.
Fixes#29105
This is a follow up to a previous change which set the error file path
for the package distributions. The observation here is that we always
set the working directory of Elasticsearch to the root of the
installation (i.e., Elasticsearch home). Therefore, we can specify the
error file path relative to this directory and default it to the logs
directory, similar to the package distributions.
This is a follow up to a previous change which set the heap dump path
for the package distributions. The observation here is that we always

directory, similar to the package distributions.
Adds support for triple quoted strings to the documentation test
generator. Kibana's CONSOLE tool has supported them for a year but we
were unable to use them in Elasticsearch's docs because the process that
converts example snippets into tests couldn't handle this. This change
adds code to convert them into standard JSON so we can pass them to
Elasticsearch.
I have seen this question a couple times already, most recently at
https://twitter.com/dimosr7/status/973872744965332993
I tried to keep the explanation as simple as I could, which is not always easy
as this is a matter of trade-offs.
By the time the master branch is released the deprecated url
parameters in the `/_cache/clear` API will have been deprecated
for a couple of minor releases. Since master will be the next
major release we are fine with removing these parameters.
Currently we have a fairly complicated logic in the engine constructor logic to deal with all the
various ways we want to mutate the lucene index and translog we're opening.
We can:
1) Create an empty index
2) Use the lucene but create a new translog
3) Use both
4) Force a new history uuid in all cases.
This leads complicated code flows which makes it harder and harder to make sure we cover all the
corner cases. This PR tries to take another approach. Constructing an InternalEngine always opens
things as they are and all needed modifications are done by static methods directly on the
directory, one at a time.

The current docs on [Indices APIs: PUT Mapping](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/indices-put-mapping.html) suggests that a having number of different mapping types per index is still possible in elasticsearch versions > 6.0.0 although they have been [removed](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/removal-of-types.html). The console code has already been updated accordingly but notes (2) and (3) on the console code still name the `user` mapping type.
This PR updates the list with notes after the console code, as well as the first sentence of the docs
to avoid confusion. Also, I have removed the second command from the console code as it no
longer holds any value if the docs are solely on the `_doc` mapping.

Similarly to what has been done for s3 and azure, this commit removes
the repository settings `application_name` and `connect/read_timeout`

it aligns the documentation to be more coherent with the S3 one, it
documents the connect/read timeouts that were not documented at all and
also adds a new client setting that allows to define a custom endpoint.
We previously specified the -server flag to force the JVM to use the
server JVM. This is the default on all the systems that we support when
using a 64-bit JVM (and we no longer support 32-bit JVMs). There was
some trouble with this flag for the Windows service since procrun did
not understand what to do with it; as such, we had to filter this flag
out in the service. When we migrated to parsing JVM options in Java (via
the JVM options parser) we simplified this situation and removed
specifying the -server flag. This commit removes a leftover statement
that we are forcing the server JVM.

This change fixes the handling of the `terminate_after` option when post_filters (or min_score) are used.

This adds the ability to index term prefixes into a hidden subfield, enabling prefix queries to be run without multitermquery rewrites. The subfield reuses the analysis chain of its parent text field, appending an EdgeNGramTokenFilter. It can be configured with minimum and maximum ngram lengths. Query terms with lengths outside this min-max range fall back to using prefix queries against the parent text field.
The mapping looks like this:

"analyzer" : "english",
"index_prefix" : { "min_chars" : 1, "max_chars" : 10 }

I played with failing the test if it left over any settings but that

Follow-up of #27819
This change adds the `after_key` of a composite aggregation directly in the response.
It is redundant when all buckets are not filtered/removed by a pipeline aggregation since in this case the `after_key` is always the last bucket
in the response. Though when using a pipeline aggregation to filter composite buckets, the `after_key` can be lost if the last bucket is filtered.
This commit fixes this situation by always returning the `after_key` in a dedicated section.

* Only bind loopback addresses when binding to local
Today when binding to local (the default) we bind to any address that is
a loopback address, or any address on an interface that declares itself
as a loopback interface. Yet, not all addresses on loopback interfaces
are loopback addresses. This arises on macOS where there is a link-local
address assigned to the loopback interface (fe80::1%lo0) and in Docker
services where virtual IPs of the service are assigned to the loopback
interface (docker/libnetwork#1877). These situations cause problems:
- because we do not handle the scope ID of a link-local address, we end
up bound to an address for which publishing of that address does not
allow that address to be reached (since we drop the scope)
- the virtual IPs in the Docker situation are not loopback addresses,
they are not link-local addresses, so we end up bound to interfaces
that cause the bootstrap checks to be enforced even though the
instance is only bound to local
We address this by only binding to actual loopback addresses, and skip
binding to any address on a loopback interface that is not a loopback
address. This lets us simplify some code where in the bootstrap checks
we were skipping link-local addresses, and in writing the ports file
where we had to skip link-local addresses because again the formatting
of them does not allow them to be connected to by another node (to be
clear, they could be connected to via the scope-qualified address, but
that information is not written out).

Each multi bucket aggregator can consume buckets during the final build of the aggregation at the shard level or during the reduce phase (final or not) in the coordinating node. When an aggregator consumes a bucket, a global count for the request is incremented and if this number is greater than the limit an exception is thrown (TooManyBuckets exception).
This change adds the ability for multi bucket aggregator to "consume" buckets in the global limit, the default is 10,000. It's an opt-in consumer so each multi-bucket aggregator must explicitly call the consumer when a bucket is added in the response.

* Add accounting circuit breaker and track segment memory usage
This commit adds a new circuit breaker "accounting" that is used for tracking
the memory usage of non-request-tied memory users. It also adds tracking for the
amount of Lucene segment memory used by a shard as a user of the new circuit
breaker.
The Lucene segment memory is updated when the shard refreshes, and removed when
the shard relocates away from a node or is deleted. It should also be noted that
all tracking for segment memory uses `addWithoutBreaking` so as not to fail the
shard if a limit is reached.
The `accounting` breaker has a default limit of 100% and will contribute to the
parent breaker limit.

When these docs were moved they should have been moved to the system
configuration docs. This commit does that, and also fixes a missing
heading that broke the docs build.
Previously the bootstrap check for max number of threads was increased
from 2048 to 4096 yet the docs were never adjusted for this change. This
commit addresses this so the docs are in-line with the limit enforced in
the bootstrap check.

Also include _type and _id for parent/child hits inside inner hits.
In the case of top_hits aggregation the nested search hits are
directly returned and are not grouped by a root or parent document, so
it is important to include the _id and _index attributes in order to know
to what documents these nested search hits belong to.

Today we refresh automatically in the background by default very second.
This default behavior has a significant impact on indexing performance
if the refreshes are not needed.
This change introduces a notion of a shard being `search idle` which a
shard transitions to after (default) `30s` without any access to an
external searcher. Once a shard is search idle all scheduled refreshes
will be skipped unless there are any refresh listeners registered.
If a search happens on a `serach idle` shard the search request _park_
on a refresh listener and will be executed once the next scheduled refresh
occurs. This will also turn the shard into the `non-idle` state immediately.
This behavior is only applied if there is no explicit refresh interval set.
The `delimited_payload_filter` is renamed to `delimited_payload`, the old name is
deprecated and should be replaced by `delimited_payload`.
Closes#21978
Today we require users to prepare their indices for split operations.
Yet, we can do this automatically when an index is created which would
make the split feature a much more appealing option since it doesn't have
any 3rd party prerequisites anymore.
This change automatically sets the number of routinng shards such that
an index is guaranteed to be able to split once into twice as many shards.
The number of routing shards is scaled towards the default shard limit per index
such that indices with a smaller amount of shards can be split more often than
larger ones. For instance an index with 1 or 2 shards can be split 10x
(until it approaches 1024 shards) while an index created with 128 shards can only
be split 3x by a factor of 2. Please note this is just a default value and users
can still prepare their indices with `index.number_of_routing_shards` for custom
splitting.
NOTE: this change has an impact on the document distribution since we are changing
the hash space. Documents are still uniformly distributed across all shards but since
we are artificually changing the number of buckets in the consistent hashign space
document might be hashed into different shards compared to previous versions.
This is a 7.0 only change.
Add an index level setting `index.mapping.nested_objects.limit` to control
the number of nested json objects that can be in a single document
across all fields. Defaults to 10000.
Throw an error if the number of created nested documents exceed this
limit during the parsing of a document.
Closes#26962
Today Cross Cluster Search requires at least one node in each remote cluster to be up once the cross cluster search is run. Otherwise the whole search request fails despite some of the data (either local and/or remote) is available. This happens when performing the _search/shards calls to find out which remote shards the query has to be executed on. This scenario is different from shard failures that may happen later on when the query is actually executed, in case e.g. remote shards are missing, which is not going to fail the whole request but rather yield partial results, and the _shards section in the response will indicate that.
This commit introduces a boolean setting per cluster called search.remote.$cluster_alias.skip_if_disconnected, set to false by default, which allows to skip certain clusters if they are down when trying to reach them through a cross cluster search requests. By default all clusters are mandatory.
Scroll requests support such setting too when they are first initiated (first search request with scroll parameter), but subsequent scroll rounds (_search/scroll endpoint) will fail if some of the remote clusters went down meanwhile.
The search API response contains now a new _clusters section, similar to the _shards section, that gets returned whenever one or more clusters were disconnected and got skipped:
"_clusters" : {
"total" : 3,
"successful" : 2,
"skipped" : 1
}
Such section won't be part of the response if no clusters have been skipped.
The per cluster skip_unavailable setting value has also been added to the output of the remote/info API.
This commit removes the ability to use ${prompt.secret} and
${prompt.text} as valid config settings. Secure settings has obsoleted
the need for this, and it cleans up some of the code in Bootstrap.
This commit corrects a word usage error in the getting started

* Make fields optional in multi_match query and rely on index.query.default_field by default
This commit adds the ability to send `multi_match` query without providing any `fields`.
When no fields are provided the `multi_match` query will use the fields defined in the index setting `index.query.default_field`
(which in turns defaults to `*`).
The same behavior is already implemented in `query_string` and `simple_query_string` so this change just applies
the heuristic to `multi_match` queries.
Relying on `index.query.default_field` rather than `*` is safer for big mappings that break the 1024 field expansion limit added in 7.0 for all
text queries. For these kind of mappings the admin can change the `index.query.default_field` in order to make sure that exploratory queries using
`multi_match`, `query_string` or `simple_query_string` do not throw an exception.
* This change adds a module called `aggs-composite` that defines a new aggregation named `composite`.
The `composite` aggregation is a multi-buckets aggregation that creates composite buckets made of multiple sources.
The sources for each bucket can be defined as:
* A `terms` source, values are extracted from a field or a script.
* A `date_histogram` source, values are extracted from a date field and rounded to the provided interval.
This aggregation can be used to retrieve all buckets of a deeply nested aggregation by flattening the nested aggregation in composite buckets.
A composite buckets is composed of one value per source and is built for each document as the combinations of values in the provided sources.
For instance the following aggregation:
````
"test_agg": {
"terms": {
"field": "field1"
},
"aggs": {
"nested_test_agg":
"terms": {
"field": "field2"
}
}
}
````
... which retrieves the top N terms for `field1` and for each top term in `field1` the top N terms for `field2`, can be replaced by a `composite` aggregation in order to retrieve **all** the combinations of `field1`, `field2` in the matching documents:
````
"composite_agg": {
"composite": {
"sources": [
{
"field1": {
"terms": {
"field": "field1"
}
}
},
{
"field2": {
"terms": {
"field": "field2"
}
}
},
}
}
````
The response of the aggregation looks like this:
````
"aggregations": {
"composite_agg": {
"buckets": [
{
"key": {
"field1": "alabama",
"field2": "almanach"
},
"doc_count": 100
},
{
"key": {
"field1": "alabama",
"field2": "calendar"
},
"doc_count": 1
},
{
"key": {
"field1": "arizona",
"field2": "calendar"
},
"doc_count": 1
}
]
}
}
````
By default this aggregation returns 10 buckets sorted in ascending order of the composite key.
Pagination can be achieved by providing `after` values, the values of the composite key to aggregate after.
For instance the following aggregation will aggregate all composite keys that sorts after `arizona, calendar`:
````
"composite_agg": {
"composite": {
"after": {"field1": "alabama", "field2": "calendar"},
"size": 100,
"sources": [
{
"field1": {
"terms": {
"field": "field1"
}
}
},
{
"field2": {
"terms": {
"field": "field2"
}
}
}
}
}
````
This aggregation is optimized for indices that set an index sorting that match the composite source definition.
For instance the aggregation above could run faster on indices that defines an index sorting like this:
````
"settings": {
"index.sort.field": ["field1", "field2"]
}
````
In this case the `composite` aggregation can early terminate on each segment.
This aggregation also accepts multi-valued field but disables early termination for these fields even if index sorting matches the sources definition.
This is mandatory because index sorting picks only one value per document to perform the sort.
This section was removed to hide this ability to new users.
This change restores the section and adds a warning regarding the expected performance.

The existing log rotation configuration allowed the index

date based rotation and adds the same size based rotation, that

response to #25972.
Queries that create a scroll context cannot use the cache.
They modify the search context during their execution so using the cache
can lead to duplicate result for the next scroll query.
This change fails the entire request if the request_cache option is explictely set
on a query that creates a scroll context (`scroll=1m`) and make sure internally that we never
use the cache for these queries when the option is not explicitely used.
For 6.x a deprecation log will be printed instead of failing the entire request and the request_cache hint
will be ignored (forced to false).
extract all clauses from a conjunction query.
When clauses from a conjunction are extracted the number of clauses is
also stored in an internal doc values field (minimum_should_match field).
This field is used by the CoveringQuery and allows the percolator to
reduce the number of false positives when selecting candidate matches and
in certain cases be absolutely sure that a conjunction candidate match
will match and then skip MemoryIndex validation. This can greatly improve
performance.
Before this change only a single clause was extracted from a conjunction
query. The percolator tried to extract the clauses that was rarest in order
(based on term length) to attempt less candidate queries to be selected
in the first place. However this still method there is still a very high
chance that candidate query matches are false positives.
This change also removes the influencing query extraction added via #26081
as this is no longer needed because now all conjunction clauses are extracted.

Some code-paths use anonymous classes (such as NonCollectingAggregator
in terms agg), which messes up the display name of the profiler. If
we encounter an anonymous class, we need to grab the super's name.
Another naming issue was that ProfileAggs were not delegating to the
wrapped agg's name for toString(), leading to ugly display.
This PR also fixes up the profile documentation. Some of the examples were
executing against empty indices, which shows different profile results
than a populated index (and made for confusing examples).
Finally, I switched the agg display names from the fully qualified name
to the simple name, so that it's similar to how the query profiles work.
Closes#26405
This change adds a new `_split` API that allows to split indices into a new
index with a power of two more shards that the source index. This API works
alongside the `_shrink` API but doesn't require any shard relocation before
indices can be split.
The split operation is conceptually an inverse `_shrink` operation since we
initialize the index with a _syntetic_ number of routing shards that are used
for the consistent hashing at index time. Compared to indices created with
earlier versions this might produce slightly different shard distributions but
has no impact on the per-index backwards compatibility. For now, the user is
required to prepare an index to be splittable by setting the
`index.number_of_routing_shards` at index creation time. The setting allows the
user to prepare the index to be splittable in factors of
`index.number_of_routing_shards` ie. if the index is created with
`index.number_of_routing_shards: 16` and `index.number_of_shards: 2` it can be
split into `4, 8, 16` shards. This is an intermediate step until we can make
this the default. This also allows us to safely backport this change to 6.x.
The `_split` operation is implemented internally as a DeleteByQuery on the
lucene level that is executed while the primary shards execute their initial
recovery. Subsequent merges that are triggered due to this operation will not be
executed immediately. All merges will be deferred unti the shards are started
and will then be throttled accordingly.
This change is intended for the 6.1 feature release but will not support pre-6.1
indices to be split unless these indices have been shrunk before. In that case
these indices can be split backwards into their original number of shards.
