The minimum number of optional should clauses of the generated query to match
can now be set using the more extensive minimum should match syntax. This
makes the `percent_terms_to_match` parameter deprecated, and replaced in favor
to a new `minimum_should_match` parameter.
Closes#7898
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
Java Builder apis drop old “len” methods in favour of new “length”
Rest APIs support both old “len: and new “length” forms using new ParseField class to a) provide compiler-checked consistency between Builder and Parser classes and
b) a common means of handling deprecated syntax in the DSL.
Documentation and rest specs only document the new “*length” forms
Closes#4083
