Previously, cross-cluster replication (CCR) documentation was located in
the Stack Overview:
https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elastic-stack-overview/master/xpack-ccr.html
This adds CCR documentation to the Elasticsearch Reference Guide with a
level offset for headings.
The level offset and CCR Stack Overview docs will be removed in later
commits.
Moves the following API sections under the REST APIs navigations:
- API Conventions
- Document APIs
- Search APIs
- Index APIs (previously named Indices APIs)
- cat APIs
- Cluster APIs
Other supporting changes:
- Removes the previous index APIs page under REST APIs. Adds a redirect for the removed page.
- Removes several [partintro] macros so the docs build correctly.
- Changes anchors for pages that become sections of a parent page.
- Adds several redirects for existing pages that become sections of a parent page.
This commit re-applies changes from #44238. Changes from that PR were reverted due to broken links in several repos. This commit adds redirects for those broken links.
* [DOCS] Add introduction to Elasticsearch.
* [DOCS] Incorporated review comments.
* [DOCS] Minor edits to add an abbreviated title and cross refs.
* [DOCS] Added sizing tips & link to quantatative sizing video.
This commit adds a rest endpoint for freezing and unfreezing an index.
Among other cleanups mainly fixing an issue accessing package private APIs
from a plugin that got caught by integration tests this change also adds
documentation for frozen indices.
Note: frozen indices are marked as `beta` and available as a basic feature.

This commit is our first introduction to cross-cluster replication
docs. In this commit, we introduce the cross-cluster replication API
docs. We also add skelton docs for additional content that will be added
in a series of follow-up commits.
Adds "Appending B. Painless API Reference", a reference of all classes
and methods available from Painless. Removes links to java packages
because they contain methods that we don't expose and don't contain
methods that we do expose (the ones in Augmentation). Instead this
generates a list of every class and every exposed method using the same
type information available to the
interpreter/compiler/whatever-we-call-it. From there you can jump to
the relevant docs.
Right now you build all the asciidoc files by running
```
gradle generatePainlessApi
```
These files are expected to be committed because we build the docs
without running `gradle`.
Also changes the output of `Debug.explain` so that it is easy to
search for the class in the generated reference documentation.
You can also run it in an IDE safely if you pass the path to the
directory in which to generate the docs as the first parameter. It'll
blow away the entire directory an recreate it from scratch so be careful.
And then you can build the docs by running something like:
```
../docs/build_docs.pl --out ../built_docs/ --doc docs/reference/index.asciidoc --open
```
That is, if you have checked out https://github.com/elastic/docs in
`../docs`. Wait a minute or two and your browser will pop open in with
all of Elasticsearch's reference documentation. If you go to
`http://localhost:8000/painless-api-reference.html` you can see this
list. Or you can get there by following the links to `Modules` and
`Scripting` and `Painless` and then clicking the link in the paragraphs
below titled `Appendix B. Painless API Reference`.
I like having these in asciidoc because we can deep link to them from the
rest of the guide with constructs like
`<<painless-api-reference-Object-hashCode-0>>` and
`<<painless-api-reference->>` and we get link checking. Then the only
brittle link maintenance bit is the link generation for javadoc. Which
sucks. But I think it is important that we link to the methods directly
so they are easy to find.
