Until now all version types have officially required the version to be a positive long number. Despite of this has being documented, ES versions <=1.0 did not enforce it when using the `external` version type. As a result people have succesfully indexed documents with 0 as a version. In 1.1. we introduced validation checks on incoming version values and causing indexing request to fail if the version was set to 0. While this is strictly speaking OK, we effectively have a situation where data already indexed does not match the version invariant.
To be lenient and adhere to spirit of our data backward compatibility policy, we have decided to allow 0 as a valid external version type. This is somewhat complicated as 0 is also the internal value of `MATCH_ANY`, which indicates requests should succeed regardles off the current doc version. To keep things simple, this commit changes the internal value of `MATCH_ANY` to `-3` for all version types.
Since we're doing this in a minor release (and because versions are stored in the transaction log), the default `internal` version type still accepts 0 as a `MATCH_ANY` value. This is not a problem for other version types as `MATCH_ANY` doesn't make sense in that context.

* If plugin does not provide `lucene` property, we consider that the plugin is compatible.
* If plugin provides `lucene` property, we try to load related Enum org.apache.lucene.util.Version. If this fails, it means that the node is too "old" comparing to the Lucene version the plugin was built for.
* We compare then two first digits of current node lucene version against two first digits of plugin Lucene version. If not equal, it means that the plugin is too "old" for the current node.
Plugin developers who wants to launch plugin check only have to add a `lucene` property in `es-plugin.properties` file. If you are using maven to build your plugin, you can do it like this:
In `pom.xml`:
```xml
<properties>
<lucene.version>4.6.0</lucene.version>
</properties>
<build>
<resources>
<resource>
<directory>src/main/resources</directory>
<filtering>true</filtering>
</resource>
</resources>
</build>
```
In `es-plugin.properties`, add:
```properties
lucene=${lucene.version}
```
BTW, if you don't already have it, you can add the plugin version as well:
```properties
version=${project.version}
```
You can disable that check using `plugins.check_lucene: false`.
Our improvements to t-digest have been pushed upstream and t-digest also got
some additional nice improvements around memory usage and speedups of quantile
estimation. So it makes sense to use it as a dependency now.
This also allows to remove the test dependency on Apache Mahout.

It's dangerous to expose SerialMergeScheduler as an option: since it only allows one merge at a time, it can easily cause merging to fall behind.
Closes#6120
By default More Like This API excludes the queried document from the response.
However, when debugging or when comparing scores across different queries, it
could be useful to have the best possible matched hit. So this option lets users
explicitly specify the desired behavior.
Closes#6067
In the Google Groups forum there appears to be some confusion as to what mlt
does. This documentation update should hopefully help demystifying this
feature, and provide some understanding as to how to use its parameters.
Closes#6092
- Randomized integration tests for the benchmark API.
- Negative tests for cases where the cluster cannot run benchmarks.
- Return 404 on missing benchmark name.
- Allow to specify 'types' as an array in the JSON syntax when describing a benchmark competition.
- Don't record slowest for single-request competitions.

Adds a table with the exhaustive list of all available headers with a brief description (mostly from `org.elasticsearch.rest.action.cat.RestNodesAction`) so that people do not need to go searching for them in the code like I did, or search through `nodes?help`.
Significant terms internally maintain a priority queue per shard with a size potentially
lower than the number of terms. This queue uses the score as criterion to determine if
a bucket is kept or not. If many terms with low subsetDF score very high
but the `min_doc_count` is set high, this might result in no terms being
returned because the pq is filled with low frequent terms which are all sorted
out in the end.
This can be avoided by increasing the `shard_size` parameter to a higher value.
However, it is not immediately clear to which value this parameter must be set
because we can not know how many terms with low frequency are scored higher that
the high frequent terms that we are actually interested in.
On the other hand, if there is no routing of docs to shards involved, we can maybe
assume that the documents of classes and also the terms therein are distributed evenly
across shards. In that case it might be easier to not add documents to the pq that have
subsetDF <= `shard_min_doc_count` which can be set to something like
`min_doc_count`/number of shards because we would assume that even when summing up
the subsetDF across shards `min_doc_count` will not be reached.

Update `geo-shape-type.asciidoc` to include all `GeoShapeType`s supported by the `org.elasticsearch.common.geo.builders.ShapeBuilder`.
Changes include:
1. A tabular mapping of GeoJSON types to Elasticsearch types
2. Listing all types, with brief examples, for all support Elasticsearch types
3. Putting non-standard types to the bottom (really just moving Envelope to the bottom)
4. Linking to all GeoJSON types.
5. Adding whitespace around tightly nested arrays (particularly `multipolygon`) for readability
The possibility of filtering for index templates in the cluster state API
had been introduced before there was a dedicated index templates API. This
commit removes this support from the cluster state API, as it was not really
clean, requiring you to specify the metadata and the index templates.
Closes#4954
A boost terms factor of 1.0 is not the same as no boosting of terms.
The desired behavior is to deactivate boosting by default. If the user
specifies any value other than 0, then boosting is activated.
Closes#6021
Updating to this version allows to configure a special JNA directory,
in case the /tmp directory is mounted with the noexec option, as JNA
extracts some data and tries to execute parts of it.
Also updated documentation to clarify mlockall and memory settings as well
as pointing to the new jna.tmpdir system property.
Closes#5493
Decay functions currently only use the first value in a field that contains
multiple values to compute the distance to the origin. Instead, it should
consider all distances if more values are in the field and then use
one of min/max/sum/avg which is defined by the user.

Separate version check logic for reads and writes for all version types, which allows different behavior in these cases.
Change `VersionType.EXTERNAL` & `VersionType.EXTERNAL_GTE` to behave the same as `VersionType.INTERNAL` for read operations.
The previous behavior was fit for writes but is useless in reads.
This commit also makes the usage of `EXTERNAL` & `EXTERNAL_GTE` in the update api raise a validation error as it make cause data to
be lost.

The current setting of 20MB/sec seems to be too conservative given
the capabilities of modern hardware / network throughput.
A 50MB default should provide better out of the box performance.
Change the default numeric precision_step to 16 for 64-bit types,
8 for 32-bit and 16-bit types. Disable precision_step for the 8-bit
byte type.
Closes#5905
The current setting of 20MB/sec seems to be too conservative given
the capabilities of modern hardware. Even on cloud infrastructure this
seems to be too lowish. A 50MB default should provide better out of the box
performance
Currently we use 5k operations as a flush threshold. Indexing 5k documents
per second is rather common which would cause the index to be committed on
the lucene level each time the flush logic runs which is 5 seconds by default.
We should rather use a size based threshold similar to the lucene index writer
that doesn't cause such agressive commits which can slow down indexing significantly
especially since they cause the underlying devices to fsync their data.
Load tests showed that SerialMS has problems to keep up with
the merges under high load. We should switch back to CMS
until we have a better story to balance merge
threads / efforts across shards on a single node.
