With the unified release process across the elastic stack, download
links for all products are changing. This change updates docs referring
to the old download and packages urls.
Note that this change also updates the plugin installation command as
the url for downloads is being changed to be consistent with that for
packages (both plural).
The serial collector is not suitable for running with a server
application like Elasticsearch and can decimate performance and lead to
cluster instability. This commit adds a bootstrap check to prevent usage
of the serial collector when Elasticsearch is running in production
mode.

This tracks the snippets that probably should be converted to
`// CONSOLE` or `// TESTRESPONSE` and fails the build if the list
of files with such snippets doesn't match the list in `docs/build.gradle`.
Setting the file looks like
```
/* List of files that have snippets that probably should be converted to
* `// CONSOLE` and `// TESTRESPONSE` but have yet to be converted. Try and
* only remove entries from this list. When it is empty we'll remove it
* entirely and have a party! There will be cake and everything.... */
buildRestTests.expectedUnconvertedCandidates = [
'plugins/discovery-azure-classic.asciidoc',
...
'reference/search/suggesters/completion-suggest.asciidoc',
]
```
This list is in `build.gradle` because we expect it to be fairly
temporary. In a few months we'll have converted all of the docs and won't
ned it any more.
From now on if you add now docs that contain a snippet that shows an
interaction with elasticsearch you have three choices:
1. Stick `// CONSOLE` on the interactions and `// TESTRESPONSE` on the
responses. The build (specifically (`gradle docs:check`) will test that
these interactions "work". If there isn't a `// TESTRESPONSE` snippet
then "work" just means "Elasticsearch responds with a 200-level response
code and no `WARNING` headers. This is way better than nothing.
2. Add `// NOTCONSOLE` if the snippet isn't actually interacting with
Elasticsearch. This should only be required for stuff like javascript
source code or `curl` against an external service like AWS or GCE. The
snippet will not get "OPEN IN CONSOLE" or "COPY AS CURL" buttons or be
tested.
3. Add `// TEST[skip:reason]` under the snippet. This will just skip the
snippet in the test phase. This should really be reserved for snippets
where we can't test them because they require an external service that
we don't have at testing time.
Please, please, please, please don't add more things to the list. After
all, it sais there'll be cake when we remove it entirely!

We can now run templates using `explain` and/or `profile` parameters.
Which is interesting when you have defined a complicated profile but want to debug it in an easier way than running the full query again.
You can use `explain` parameter when running a template:
```js
GET /_search/template
{
"file": "my_template",
"params": {
"status": [ "pending", "published" ]
},
"explain": true
}
```
You can use `profile` parameter when running a template:

During a networking partition, cluster states updates (like mapping changes or shard assignments)
are committed if a majority of the masters node received the update correctly. This means that the current master has access to enough nodes in the cluster to continue to operate correctly. When the network partition heals, the isolated nodes catch up with the current state and get the changes they couldn't receive before. However, if a second partition happens while the cluster
is still recovering from the previous one *and* the old master is put in the minority side, it may be that a new master is elected which did not yet catch up. If that happens, cluster state updates can be lost.
This commit fixed 95% of this rare problem by adding the current cluster state version to `PingResponse` and use them when deciding which master to join (and thus casting the node's vote).
Note: this doesn't fully mitigate the problem as a cluster state update which is issued concurrently with a network partition can be lost if the partition prevents the commit message (part of the two phased commit of cluster state updates) from reaching any single node in the majority side *and* the partition does allow for the master to acknowledge the change. We are working on a more comprehensive fix but that requires considerate work and is targeted at 6.0.
Currently, we check if a node has the same set of custom metadata as the master
before joining the cluster. This implies freshly installing a plugin that has its
custom metadata requires a full cluster restart.
`profile.asciidoc` now runs all of its command but it doesn't validate
all of the results. Writing the validation is time consuming so I only
did some of it.
* Update rescoring docs in respect to sort
If sort is present in a query the rescore query is not executed. As long as this feature is neither implemented (see discussion in #6788) nor the combination of sort and rescoring raises an error, we should warn the user in the documentation about this.

update geoip to not include null-valued results from database
Originally, the plugin would still insert all the requested fields, but
assign null to each one. This fixes that by not writing the fields at
all. Makes for a better experience when the null fields conflict with
the typical geo_point field mapping.
With the cut over to LatLonPoint the geohash, geohash_precision, lat_lon, and geohash_prefix parameters have been removed. This commit fixes the doc build by removing the remaining dangling references to these removed parameters.
This change replaces the fields parameter with stored_fields when it makes sense.
This is dictated by the renaming we made in #18943 for the search API.
The following list of endpoint has been changed to use `stored_fields` instead of `fields`:
* get
* mget
* explain
The documentation and the rest API spec has been updated to cope with the changes for the following APIs:
* delete_by_query
* get
* mget
* explain
The `fields` parameter has been deprecated for the following APIs (it is replaced by _source filtering):
* update: the fields are extracted from the _source directly.
* bulk: the fields parameter is used but fields are extracted from the source directly so it is allowed to have non-stored fields.
Some APIs still have the `fields` parameter for various reasons:
* cat.fielddata: the fields paramaters relates to the fielddata fields that should be printed.
* indices.clear_cache: used to indicate which fielddata fields should be cleared.
* indices.get_field_mapping: used to filter fields in the mapping.
* indices.stats: get stats on fields (stored or not stored).
* termvectors: fields are retrieved from the stored fields if possible and extracted from the _source otherwise.
* mtermvectors:
* nodes.stats: the fields parameter is used to concatenate completion_fields and fielddata_fields so it's not related to stored_fields at all.

This commit adds a -q/--quiet option to Elasticsearch so that it does not log anything in the console and closes stdout & stderr streams.

Previous versions of Elasticsearch permitted unquoted JSON field names even though this is against the JSON spec.

** The default script language is now maintained in `Script` class.
* Added `script.legacy.default_lang` setting that controls the default language for scripts that are stored inside documents (for example percolator queries). This defaults to groovy.
** Added `QueryParseContext#getDefaultScriptLanguage()` that manages the default scripting language. Returns always `painless`, unless loading query/search request in legacy mode then the returns what is configured in `script.legacy.default_lang` setting.
** In the aggregation parsing code added `ParserContext` that also holds the default scripting language like `QueryParseContext`. Most parser don't have access to `QueryParseContext`. This is for scripts in aggregations.
* The `lang` script field is always serialized (toXContent).

This adds support for snippets who's language is written like
`[source, txt]` and `["source","js",subs="attributes,callouts"]`.
This also makes language required for snippets which is nice because
then we can be sure we can grep for snippets in a particular language.

The mem section was buggy in cluster stats and removed. It is now added back with the same structure as in node stats, containing total memory, available memory, used memory and percentages. All the values are the sum of all the nodes across the cluster (or at least the ones that we were able to get the values from).
If elasticsearch controls the ID values as well as the documents
version we can optimize the code that adds / appends the documents
to the index. Essentially we an skip the version lookup for all
documents unless the same document is delivered more than once.
On the lucene level we can simply call IndexWriter#addDocument instead
of #updateDocument but on the Engine level we need to ensure that we deoptimize
the case once we see the same document more than once.
This is done as follows:
1. Mark every request with a timestamp. This is done once on the first node that
receives a request and is fixed for this request. This can be even the
machine local time (see why later). The important part is that retry
requests will have the same value as the original one.
2. In the engine we make sure we keep the highest seen time stamp of "retry" requests.
This is updated while the retry request has its doc id lock. Call this `maxUnsafeAutoIdTimestamp`
3. When the engine runs an "optimized" request comes, it compares it's timestamp with the
current `maxUnsafeAutoIdTimestamp` (but doesn't update it). If the the request
timestamp is higher it is safe to execute it as optimized (no retry request with the same
timestamp has been run before). If not we fall back to "non-optimzed" mode and run the request as a retry one
and update the `maxUnsafeAutoIdTimestamp` unless it's been updated already to a higher value

* Params improvements to Cluster Health API wait for shards
Previously, the cluster health API used a strictly numeric value
for `wait_for_active_shards`. However, with the introduction of
ActiveShardCount and the removal of write consistency level for
replication operations, `wait_for_active_shards` is used for
write operations to represent values for ActiveShardCount. This
commit moves the cluster health API's usage of `wait_for_active_shards`
to be consistent with its usage in the write operation APIs.
This commit also changes `wait_for_relocating_shards` from a
numeric value to a simple boolean value `wait_for_no_relocating_shards`
to set whether the cluster health operation should wait for
all relocating shards to complete relocation.
* Addresses code review comments

The deprecation logger is an important way to make visible features of
Elasticsearch that are deprecated. Yet, the default logging makes the
log messages for the deprecation logger invisible. We want these log
messages to be visible, so the default logging for the deprecation
logger should enable these log messages. This commit changes the log
level of deprecation log message to warn, and configures the deprecation
logger so that these log messages are visible out of the box.

While removing an index isn't actually an alias action, if we add

This commit adds the support for exclusion filter to the response filtering (filter_path) feature. It changes the XContentBuilder APIs so that it now accepts two types of filters: inclusive and exclusive. Filters are no more String arrays but sets of String instead.
This changes Elasticsearch to automatically downgrade `text` and
`keyword` fields into appropriate `string` fields when changing the
mapping of indexes imported from 2.x. This allows users to use the
modern, documented syntax against 2.x indexes. It also makes it clear
that reindexing in order to recreate the index in 5.0 is required for
any long lived indexes. This change is useful for the times when you
can't (cluster is just starting, not stable enough for reindex) or
shouldn't (index will only live 90 days or something).
This change adds a special field named _none_ that allows to disable the retrieval of the stored fields in a search request or in a TopHitsAggregation.
To completely disable stored fields retrieval (including disabling metadata fields retrieval such as _id or _type) use _none_ like this:
````
POST _search
{
"stored_fields": "_none_"
}
````
Today we do a lot of accounting inside the engine to maintain locations
of documents inside the transaction log. This is only needed to ensure
we can return the documents source from the engine if it hasn't been refreshed.
Aside of the added complexity to be able to read from the currently writing translog,
maintainance of pointers into the translog this also caused inconsistencies like different values
of the `_ttl` field if it was read from the tlog or not. TermVectors are totally different if
the document is fetched from the tranlog since copy fields are ignored etc.
This chance will simply call `refresh` if the documents latest version is not in the index. This
streamlines the semantics of the `_get` API and allows for more optimizations inside the engine
and on the transaction log. Note: `_refresh` is only called iff the requested document is not refreshed
yet but has recently been updated or added.

Most of the examples in the pipeline aggregation docs use a small
"sales" test data set and I converted all of the examples that use
it to `// CONSOLE`. There are still a bunch of snippets in the pipeline
aggregation docs that aren't `// CONSOLE` so they aren't tested. Most
of them are "this is the most basic form of this aggregation" so they
are more immune to errors and bit rot then the examples that I converted.
I'd like to do something with them as well but I'm not sure what.
Also, the moving average docs and serial diff docs didn't get a lot of
love from this pass because they don't use the test data set or follow
the same general layout.
