Adds the wait_for_active_shards parameter to the index open command. Similar to the index creation command, the index open command will now, by default, wait until the primaries have been allocated.
Closes#20937
Closed indices are currently out of scope for snapshots and shard migration,
and can cause issues in managed environments – where closing an index does
not necessarily make sense, as it still consumes the managed environment's storage quota.
This commit adds an option to dynamically disable closing indices via node or cluster settings.
Closes#14168
* `ignore_unavailable` - Controls whether to ignore if any specified indices are unavailable, this includes indices that don't exist or closed indices. Either `true` or `false` can be specified.
* `allow_no_indices` - Controls whether to fail if a wildcard indices expressions results into no concrete indices. Either `true` or `false` can be specified. For example if the wildcard expression `foo*` is specified and no indices are available that start with `foo` then depending on this setting the request will fail. This setting is also applicable when `_all`, `*` or no index has been specified.
* `expand_wildcards` - Controls to what kind of concrete indices wildcard indices expression expand to. If `open` is specified then the wildcard expression if expanded to only open indices and if `closed` is specified then the wildcard expression if expanded only to closed indices. Also both values (`open,closed`) can be specified to expand to all indices.
