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.
Relates to #18160
This pipeline will calculate percentiles over a set of sibling buckets. This is an exact
implementation, meaning it needs to cache a copy of the series in memory and sort it to determine
the percentiles.
This comes with a few limitations: to prevent serializing data around, only the requested percentiles
are calculated (unlike the TDigest version, which allows the java API to ask for any percentile).
It also needs to store the data in-memory, resulting in some overhead if the requested series is
very large.
