This commit enableds strict settings validation on node startup. All settings
passed to elasticsearch either through system properties, yaml files or any other
way to pass settings must be registered and valid. Settings that are unknown ie. due to
typos or due to deprecation or removal will cause the node to NOT start up. Plugins
have to declare all their settings on the `SettingsModule#registerSetting` and settings for
plugins that are not installed must be removed.
This commit also removes the ability to specify the nodes name via `-Des.name` or just `name` in the
configuration files. The node name must be prefixed with the node prexif like `node.name: Boom`. Left over
usage of `name` will also cause startup to fail.
Cli tools currently catch all exceptions, and only print the exception
message, except when a special system property is set. Even with this
flag set, certain exceptions, like IOException, are captured and their
stack trace is always lost.
This change adds a UserError class, which can be used a cli tools to
specify a message to the user, as well as an exit status. All other
exceptions are propagated out of main, so java will exit with non-zero
and print the stack trace.
The plugin cli currently is extremely lenient, allowing most errors to
simply be logged. This can lead to either corrupt installations (eg
partially installed plugins), or confused users.
This change rewrites the plugin cli to have almost no leniency.
Unfortunately it was not possible to remove all leniency, due in
particular to how config files are handled.
The following functionality was simplified:
* The format of the name argument to install a plugin is now an official
plugin name, maven coordinates, or a URL.
* Checksum files are required, and only checked, for official plugins
and maven plugins. Checksums are also only SHA1.
* Downloading no longer uses a separate thread, and no longer has a timeout.
* Installation, and removal, attempts to be atomic. This only truly works
when no config or bin files exist.
* config and bin directories are verified before copying is attempted.
* Permissions and user/group are no longer set on config and bin files.
We rely on the users umask.
* config and bin directories must only contain files, no subdirectories.
* The code is reorganized so each command is a separate class. These
classes already existed, but were embedded in the plugin cli class, as
an extra layer between the cli code and the code running for each command.
If we don't do this, and some path.conf is set when starting the tribe node, that path.conf will be ignored and the inner tribe clients will try to read elsewhere, where they most likely don't have permissions to read from.

Site plugins used to be used for things like kibana and marvel, but
there is no longer a need since kibana (and marvel as a kibana plugin)
uses node.js. This change removes site plugins, as well as the flag for
jvm plugins. Now all plugins are jvm plugins.
This fixes the `lenient` parameter to be `missingClasses`. I will remove this boolean and we can handle them via the normal whitelist.
It also adds a check for sheisty classes (jar hell with the jdk).
This is inspired by the lucene "sheisty" classes check, but it has false positives. This check is more evil, it validates every class file against the extension classloader as a resource, to see if it exists there. If so: jar hell.
This jar hell is a problem for several reasons:
1. causes insanely-hard-to-debug problems (like bugs in forbidden-apis)
2. hides problems (like internal api access)
3. the code you think is executing, is not really executing
4. security permissions are not what you think they are
5. brings in unnecessary dependencies
6. its jar hell
The more difficult problems are stuff like jython, where these classes are simply 'uberjared' directly in, so you cant just fix them by removing a bogus dependency. And there is a legit reason for them to do that, they want to support java 1.4.
This commit removes and now forbids all uses of
Collections#shuffle(List) and Random#<init>() across the codebase. The
rationale for removing and forbidding these methods is to increase test
reproducibility. As these methods use non-reproducible seeds, production
code and tests that rely on these methods contribute to
non-reproducbility of tests.
Instead of Collections#shuffle(List) the method
Collections#shuffle(List, Random) can be used. All that is required then
is a reproducible source of randomness. Consequently, the utility class
Randomness has been added to assist in creating reproducible sources of
randomness.
Instead of Random#<init>(), Random#<init>(long) with a reproducible seed
or the aforementioned Randomess class can be used.
Closes#15287
The NodeBuilder is currently used to construct a Node. However, this is
really just yet-another-builder that wraps around a Settings.Builder
witha couple convenience methods. But there are very few uses of these
convenience methods. This change removes NodeBuilder, in favor of just
using the Node constructor.
The tribe node creates one local client node for each cluster it
connects to. Refactorings in #13383 broke this so that each local client
node now tries to load the full elasticsearch.yml that the real tribe
node uses.
This change fixes the problem by adding a TribeClientNode which is a
subclass of Node. The Environment the node uses is now passed in (in
place of Settings), and the TribeClientNode simply does not use
InternalSettingsPreparer.prepareEnvironment.
The tests around tribe nodes are not great. The existing tests pass, but
I also manually tested by creating 2 local clusters, and configuring and
starting a tribe node. With this I was able to see in the logs the tribe
node connecting to each cluster.

* Forbid System.setProperties & co in forbidden APIs.
* Ban property write access at runtime with security manager.
Plugins that need to modify system properties will need to request permission in their plugin-security.policy

fix gradle check under jigsaw
Just suck in the system policy, so its compatible with any version of java.
It means it also respects configuration (e.g. for monitoring agents)
