* Add ccr follow info api
This api returns all follower indices and per follower index
the provided parameters at put follow / resume follow time and
whether index following is paused or active.
Closes#37127
* iter
* [DOCS] Edits the get follower info API
* [DOCS] Fixes link to remote cluster
* [DOCS] Clarifies descriptions for configured parameters
For each remote cluster the auto follow coordinator, starts an auto
follower that checks the remote cluster state and determines whether an
index needs to be auto followed. The time since last auto follow is
reported per remote cluster and gives insight whether the auto follow
process is alive.
Relates to #33007
Originates from #35895
The current response format is:
```
{
"pattern1": {
...
},
"pattern2": {
...
}
}
```
The new format is:
```
{
"patterns": [
{
"name": "pattern1",
"pattern": {
...
}
},
{
"name": "pattern2",
"pattern": {
...
}
}
]
}
```
This format is more structured and more friendly for parsing and generating specs.
This is a breaking change, but it is better to do this now while ccr
is still a beta feature than later.
Follow up from #36049
This commit uses the index settings version so that a follower can
replicate index settings changes as needed from the leader.

This commit fixes two issues with the CCR API specification:
- remove the CCR stats endpoint, it is not currently implemented
- fix the documentation links
* Changed the auto follow stats to also include follow stats.
* Renamed the auto follow stats api to stats api and changed its url path
from `/_ccr/auto_follow/stats` `/_ccr/stats`.
* Removed `/_ccr/stats` url path for the follow stats api, which makes
the index parameter a required parameter.
* Fixed docs.
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.
