We have some builders, specifically query builders, `SearchSourceBuilder`, `QuerySourceBuilder` and `SuggestBuilder`, that implement `ToXContent` and also allow to build their content as bytes by simply creating a `BytesReference` that holds their json (or yaml etc.) content (`buildAsBytes` methods). They can also print out their content through `toString`. Made sure that those common methods are in one single place and reused where needed.
Also, merged `QueryBuilder` and `BaseQueryBuilder` and made `QueryBuilder` an abstract class instead of an interface.
Closes#11063
These clauses filter the document space without affecting scoring and map to
Lucene's BooleanClause.Occur.FILTER. The `filtered` query is now deprecated and
```json
{
"filtered": {
"query": { //query },
"filter": { //filter }
}
}
```
should be replaced with
```json
{
"bool": {
"must": { //query },
"filter": { //filter }
}
}
```
These help a lot when refactoring, upgrading lucene, etc, and
can prevent code duplication (as you get a compile error for outdated stuff).
Closes#9832.
Today due the optimizations in the boolean query builder we adjust
a pure negative query with a 'match_all'. This is not the desired
behavior in the MLT API if all the fields in a document are unsupported.
If that happens today we return all documents but the one MLT is
executed on.
Closes#3453
Streamline the use of minimum should match to all relevant queries to accept `minimum_should_match`, and allow all relevant queries to accept the advanced "string" based config
