Nhat Nguyen 2756a3936b Reject illegal flush parameters (#40213)
This change rejects an illegal combination of flush parameters where
force is true, but wait_if_ongoing is false. This combination is trappy
and should be forbidden.

Closes #36342

SQL: Fix display size for DATE/DATETIME (#40669)
A full format for a DATETIME would be:

For DATE a full format would be: `2019-03-30T00:00:00.000+10:00`
which is also 29 chars long.

want for the preface to the book itself which is strange and only works

Docs: Drop inline callouts from the java API (#39932) (#40693)
There is a single example in the Java API docs that contains an inline
callout that is incompatible with Asciidoctor:

```
client.prepareUpdate("ttl", "doc", "1")
        .setScript(new Script(
            "ctx._source.gender = \"male\"" <1> , ScriptService.ScriptType.INLINE, null, null))
        .get();
```

This rewrites the example to use an Asciidoctor compatible end of line
callout. It also looks nicer to me because it fits better on the page.

```
client.prepareUpdate("ttl", "doc", "1")
        .setScript(new Script(
            "ctx._source.gender = \"male\"", <1>
            ScriptService.ScriptType.INLINE, null, null))
        .get();

Christoph Büscher 4f5a83dba2 Clarify using time_zone and date math in range query (#40655)
Currently, the docs correctly state that using `now` in range queries will not
be affected by the `time_zone` parameter. However, using date math roundings
like e.g. `now\d` will be affected by the `time_zone`. Adding this example
because it seems to be a frequently asked question and source of confusion.

Luca Cavanna f6eefd4af7 Increase suite timeout to 30 minutes for docs tests (#40521)
I have been hitting the suite timeout on `DocsClientYamlTestSuiteIT`
As far as I can see, the docs tests are taking quite a while, I assume
it's because more and more docs snippets get added over time, which
means more tests. The current suite timeout is the default 20 minutes.
It takes me just a little less than 20 minutes to run these on my
laptop. On my CI, I end up hitting the suite timeout. Hereby I propose
that we increase the suite timeout to 30 minutes.

search as you type fieldmapper (#35600)
Adds the search_as_you_type field type that acts like a text field optimized
for as-you-type search completion. It creates a couple subfields that analyze
the indexed terms as shingles, against which full terms are queried, and a
prefix subfield that analyze terms as the largest shingle size used and
edge-ngrams, against which partial terms are queried

Adds a match_bool_prefix query type that creates a boolean clause of a term
query for each term except the last, for which a boolean clause with a prefix
query is created.

The match_bool_prefix query is the recommended way of querying a search as you
type field, which will boil down to term queries for each shingle of the input
text on the appropriate shingle field, and the final (possibly partial) term
as a term query on the prefix field. This field type also supports phrase and
phrase prefix queries however

Mention legacy discovery settings in migration doc (#40528)
Today the upgrade assistant identifies that discovery configuration is required
in production mode, but links to docs saying to add one of these settings:

- `discovery.seed_hosts`
- `discovery.seed_providers`
- `cluster.initial_master_nodes`

However these settings do not exist in 6.7 so this is unhelpful advice. This
commit adjusts the docs to give more useful advice to users arriving at this

The current documentation recommends disabling allocations of all shards. This prevents shards of
new indices from being allocated as well. That means that during a rolling upgrade, operations like
roll over and index shrinking will operate correctly. This, in turn, can cause issues for data ingestion
and ILM.

Alan Woodward 83d2870308 Add `use_field` option to intervals query (#40157)
This is the equivalent of the `field_masking_span` query, allowing users to
merge intervals from multiple fields - for example, to search for stemmed tokens
near unstemmed tokens.

Add date and date_nanos conversion to the numeric_type sort option (#40199) (#40224)
This change adds an option to convert a `date` field to nanoseconds resolution
 and a `date_nanos` field to millisecond resolution when sorting.
The resolution of the sort can be set using the `numeric_type` option of the
field sort builder. The conversion is done at the shard level and is restricted
to dates from 1970 to 2262 for the nanoseconds resolution in order to avoid
numeric overflow.

Document the reduction in fault detection timeouts (#40200)
The new cluster coordination subsystem introduced in 7.0 will only keep an
unresponsive node in the cluster for 30 seconds, whereas in earlier versions it
might have remained in the cluster for 90 seconds. This commit adds a note to
the migration documentation to that effect.

Luca Cavanna a11f1c88b3 [DOCS] add details on version compatibility and remote gateway selection (#40056)
This commit clarifies how the gateway selection works when configuring
remote clusters for CCR or CCS. Specifically, it clarifies compatibility
between different versions which is a very common question.

Remove Migration Upgrade and Assistance APIs (#40075)
The Migration Assistance API has been functionally replaced by the
Deprecation Info API, and the Migration Upgrade API is not used for the
transition from ES 6.x to 7.x, and does not need to be kept around to
repair indices that were not properly upgraded before upgrading the
cluster, as was the case in 6.

Costin Leau 076a68007c SQL: Add multi_value_field_leniency inside FieldHitExtractor (#40113)
For cases where fields can have multi values, allow the behavior to be
customized through a dedicated configuration field.
By default this will be enabled on the drivers so that existing datasets
work instead of throwing an exception.
For regular SQL usage, the behavior is false so that the user is aware
of the underlying data.

Fix #39700

David Turner 8a3f87bdcd Note that GET /_cluster/state is unstable (#40104)
The `GET /_cluster/state` API returns an internal representation of the cluster
state that does change from version to version. It's useful for debugging, but
it is not intended for regular use by clients.

This change adjusts the documentation of `GET /_cluster/state` to clarify that
this API yields an internal representation that should not be expected to
remain stable between versions.

Add an option to force the numeric type of a field sort (#38095) (#40084)
This change adds an option to the `FieldSortBuilder` that allows to transform the type
of a numeric field into another. Possible values for this option are `long` that transforms
the source field into an integer and `double` that transforms the source field into a floating point.
This new option is useful for cross-index search when the sort field is mapped differently on some
indices. For instance if a field is mapped as a floating point in one index and as an integer in another
it is possible to align the type for both indices using the `numeric_type` option:

```
{
   "sort": {
    "field": "my_field",
    "numeric_type": "double" <1>
   }
}
```

<1> Ensure that values for this field are transformed to a floating point if needed.
