Previously, a reindex request had two different size specifications in the body:
* Outer level, determining the maximum documents to process
* Inside the source element, determining the scroll/batch size.
The outer level size has now been renamed to max_docs to
avoid confusion and clarify its semantics, with backwards compatibility and
deprecation warnings for using size.
Similarly, the size parameter has been renamed to max_docs for
update/delete-by-query to keep the 3 interfaces consistent.
Finally, all 3 endpoints now support max_docs in both body and URL.

Elasticsearch has long [supported](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/docs-index_.html#index-versioning) compare and set (a.k.a optimistic concurrency control) operations using internal document versioning. Sadly that approach is flawed and can sometime do the wrong thing. Here's the relevant excerpt from the resiliency status page:
> When a primary has been partitioned away from the cluster there is a short period of time until it detects this. During that time it will continue indexing writes locally, thereby updating document versions. When it tries to replicate the operation, however, it will discover that it is partitioned away. It won’t acknowledge the write and will wait until the partition is resolved to negotiate with the master on how to proceed. The master will decide to either fail any replicas which failed to index the operations on the primary or tell the primary that it has to step down because a new primary has been chosen in the meantime. Since the old primary has already written documents, clients may already have read from the old primary before it shuts itself down. The version numbers of these reads may not be unique if the new primary has already accepted writes for the same document
We recently [introduced](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/6.x/optimistic-concurrency-control.html) a new sequence number based approach that doesn't suffer from this dirty reads problem.
This commit removes support for internal versioning as a concurrency control mechanism in favor of the sequence number approach.

Added warnings checks to existing tests
Added “defaultTypeIfNull” to DocWriteRequest interface so that Bulk requests can override a null choice of document type with any global custom choice.

* Deprecate types in index API
- deprecate type-based constructors of IndexRequest
- update tests to use typeless IndexRequest constructors
- no yaml tests as they have been already added in #35790

The following updates were made:
* Add deprecation warnings to `RestUpdateAction`, plus a test in `RestUpdateActionTests`.
* Deprecate relevant methods on the Java HLRC requests/ responses.
* Add HLRC integration tests for the typed APIs.
* Update documentation (for both the REST API and Java HLRC).
* Fix failing integration tests.
Because of an earlier PR, the REST yml tests were already updated (one version without types, and another legacy version that retains types).
For each API, the following updates were made:
- Add deprecation warnings to `Rest*Action`, plus tests in `Rest*ActionTests`.
- For each REST yml test, make sure there is one version without types, and another legacy version that retains types (called *_with_types.yml).
- Deprecate relevant methods on the Java HLRC requests/ responses.
- Update documentation (for both the REST API and Java HLRC).
* Add deprecation warnings to `Rest*TermVectorsAction`, plus tests in `Rest*TermVectorsActionTests`.
* Deprecate relevant methods on the Java HLRC requests/ responses.
* Update documentation (for both the REST API and Java HLRC).
* For each REST yml test, create one version without types, and another legacy version that retains types (called *_with_types.yml).
Bulk Request in High level rest client should be consistent with what is
possible in Rest API, therefore should support global parameters. Global
parameters are passed in URL in Rest API.
Some parameters are mandatory - index, type - and would fail validation
if not provided before before the bulk is executed.
Optional parameters - routing, pipeline.
The usage of these should be consistent across sync/async execution,
bulk processor and BulkRequestBuilder

This further applies the pattern set in #34125 to reduce copy-and-paste
in the multi-document CRUD portion of the High Level REST Client docs.
It also adds line wraps to snippets that are too wide to fit into the box
when rendered in the docs, following up on the work started in #34163.
* Replace deprecated field `code` with `source` for stored scripts (#25127)
* Replace examples using the deprecated endpoint `{index}/{type}/_search`
with `{index}/_search` (#29468)
* Use a system property to avoid deprecation warnings after the Update
Scripts have been moved to their own context (#32096)

This change adds throttling to the update-by-query and delete-by-query cases
similar to throttling for reindex. This mostly means additional methods on the
client class itself, since the request hits the same RestHandler, just with
slightly different endpoints, and also the return values are similar.
Some features have been deprecated since `6.0` like the `_parent` field or the
ability to have multiple types per index. This allows to remove quite some
code, which in-turn will hopefully make it easier to proceed with the removal
of types.
The REST Client is split into 2 parts:
* Low level
* High level
The High level client has a main common section and the document delete API documentation as a start.
