This changes the way that replica failures are handled such that not all
failures will cause the replica shard to be failed or marked as stale.
In some cases such as refresh operations, or global checkpoint syncs, it is
"okay" for the operation to fail without the shard being failed (because no data
is out of sync). In these cases, instead of failing the shard we should simply
fail the operation, and, in the event it is a user-facing operation, return a
5xx response code including the shard-specific failures.
This was accomplished by having two forms of the `Replicas` proxy, one that is
for non-write operations that does not fail the shard, and one that is for write
operations that will fail the shard when an operation fails.

This change adds a strict mode for xcontent parsing on the rest layer. The strict mode will be off by default for 5.x and in a separate commit will be enabled by default for 6.0. The strict mode, which can be enabled by setting `http.content_type.required: true` in 5.x, will require that all incoming rest requests have a valid and supported content type header before the request is dispatched. In the non-strict mode, the Content-Type header will be inspected and if it is not present or not valid, we will continue with auto detection of content like we have done previously.
The content type header is parsed to the matching XContentType value with the only exception being for plain text requests. This value is then passed on with the content bytes so that we can reduce the number of places where we need to auto-detect the content type.
As part of this, many transport requests and builders were updated to provide methods that
accepted the XContentType along with the bytes and the methods that would rely on auto-detection have been deprecated.
In the non-strict mode, deprecation warnings are issued whenever a request with body doesn't provide the Content-Type header.

This PR removes all leniency in the conversion of Strings to booleans: "true"
is converted to the boolean value `true`, "false" is converted to the boolean
value `false`. Everything else raises an error.
With this commit we enable the Jackson feature 'STRICT_DUPLICATE_DETECTION'
by default for all XContent types (not only JSON).
We have also changed the name of the system property to disable this feature
from `es.json.strict_duplicate_detection` to the now more appropriate name
`es.xcontent.strict_duplicate_detection`.

With this commit we enable the Jackson feature 'STRICT_DUPLICATE_DETECTION'
by default. This ensures that JSON keys are always unique. While this has
a performance impact, benchmarking has indicated that the typical drop in
indexing throughput is around 1 - 2%.
As a last resort, we allow users to still disable strict duplicate checks
by setting `-Des.json.strict_duplicate_detection=false` which is
intentionally undocumented.
Closes#19614
For the record, I also had to remove the geo-hash cell and geo-distance range
queries to make the code compile. These queries already throw an exception in
all cases with 5.x indices, so that does not hurt any more.
I also had to rename all 2.x bwc indices from `index-${version}` to
`unsupported-${version}` to make `OldIndexBackwardCompatibilityIT`
happy.
Exist requests are supposed to never throw an exception, but rather return true or false depending on whether some resource exists or not. Indices exists does that for indices and accepts wildcard expressions too. The way the api works internally is by resolving indices and catching IndexNotFoundException: if an exception is thrown the index does not exist hence it returns false, otherwise it returns true. That works ok only if ignore_unavailable and allow_no_indices indices options are both set to false, meaning that they are strict and any missing index or wildcard expressions that resolves to no indices will lead to an exception that can be thrown and cause false to be returned.
Unfortunately the indices options have been configurable up until now for this request, meaning that one can set ignore_unavailable or allow_no_indices to true and have the indices exist request return true for indices that really don't exist, which makes very little sense in the context of this api.
This commit removes the indicesOptions setter from the IndicesExistsRequest and makes settable only expandWildcardsOpen and expandWildcardsClosed, hence a subset of the available indices options. This way we can guarantee more consistent behaviour of the indices exists api. We can then remove the ignore_unavailable and allow_no_indices option from indices exists api spec
Previous versions of Elasticsearch permitted unquoted JSON field names even though this is against the JSON spec. This leniency was disabled by default in the 5.x series of Elasticsearch but a backwards compatibility layer was added via a system property with the intention of removing this layer in 6.0.0. This commit removes this backwards compatibility layer.
