- Replaces more abstract docs about object structure and values source with task-based examples.
- Relocates several sections from the current `misc.asciidoc` file.
- Alphabetically sorts agg categories in the nav.
- Removes the matrix agg family. Moves the stats matrix agg under the metric agg family
We've identified two important enhancements that may affect the API. We expect
any API changes from these enhancements to be minor, but want to leave open the
possibility for small breaks. For example, we may end up returning unmapped
fields by default, or omitting nested fields from the root hit. The impact to
users should be quite small.
We're tracking the issues we need to resolve before removing the 'beta' label
here: #60985.
This PR adds deprecation warnings when accessing System Indices via the REST layer. At this time, these warnings are only enabled for Snapshot builds by default, to allow projects external to Elasticsearch additional time to adjust their access patterns.
Deprecation warnings will be triggered by all REST requests which access registered System Indices, except for purpose-specific APIs which access System Indices as an implementation detail a few specific APIs which will continue to allow access to system indices by default:
- `GET _cluster/health`
- `GET {index}/_recovery`
- `GET _cluster/allocation/explain`
- `GET _cluster/state`
- `POST _cluster/reroute`
- `GET {index}/_stats`
- `GET {index}/_segments`
- `GET {index}/_shard_stores`
- `GET _cat/[indices,aliases,health,recovery,shards,segments]`
Deprecation warnings for accessing system indices take the form:
```
this request accesses system indices: [.some_system_index], but in a future major version, direct access to system indices will be prevented by default
```
We support `"""` in `console` snippets to emulate kibana's CONSOLE.
CONSOLE also spits out `"""` when a json field contains a new line or a
double quote. This adds support for those sorts of responses to the
handling of `console-response` snippets.
If `track_total_hits=true` is used, the exact value of the number of hits is returned - i.e. the value is effectively limitless, and not the default value of 10,000

This adds two extra bits of info to the profiler:
1. Count of the number of different types of collectors. This lets us figure
out if we're using the optimization for segment ordinals. It adds a few
more similar counters just for good measure.
2. Profiles the `getLeafCollector` and `postCollection` methods. These are
non-trivial for some aggregations, like cardinality.
This PR adds support for the 'fields' option in the following places:
* Anytime `inner_hits` is used, for both fetching nested/ child docs and field collapsing
* The `top_hits` aggregation
Addresses #61949.
This commit introduces a new API that manages point-in-times in x-pack
basic. Elasticsearch pit (point in time) is a lightweight view into the
state of the data as it existed when initiated. A search request by
default executes against the most recent point in time. In some cases,
it is preferred to perform multiple search requests using the same point
in time. For example, if refreshes happen between search_after requests,
then the results of those requests might not be consistent as changes
happening between searches are only visible to the more recent point in
time.
A point in time must be opened before being used in search requests. The
`keep_alive` parameter tells Elasticsearch how long it should keep a
point in time around.
```
POST /my_index/_pit?keep_alive=1m
```
The response from the above request includes a `id`, which should be
passed to the `id` of the `pit` parameter of search requests.
```
POST /_search
{
"query": {
"match" : {
"title" : "elasticsearch"
}
},
"pit": {
"id": "46ToAwMDaWR4BXV1aWQxAgZub2RlXzEAAAAAAAAAAAEBYQNpZHkFdXVpZDIrBm5vZGVfMwAAAAAAAAAAKgFjA2lkeQV1dWlkMioGbm9kZV8yAAAAAAAAAAAMAWICBXV1aWQyAAAFdXVpZDEAAQltYXRjaF9hbGw_gAAAAA==",
"keep_alive": "1m"
}
}
```
Point-in-times are automatically closed when the `keep_alive` is
elapsed. However, keeping point-in-times has a cost; hence,
point-in-times should be closed as soon as they are no longer used in
search requests.
```
DELETE /_pit
{
"id" : "46ToAwMDaWR4BXV1aWQxAgZub2RlXzEAAAAAAAAAAAEBYQNpZHkFdXVpZDIrBm5vZGVfMwAAAAAAAAAAKgFjA2lkeQV1dWlkMioGbm9kZV8yAAAAAAAAAAAMAWIBBXV1aWQyAAA="
}
```

No-op changes to:
* Move `Search your data` source files into the same directory
* Rename `Search your data` source files based on page ID
* Remove unneeded includes
* Remove the `Request` dir
Changes:
* Removes narrative around URI searches. These aren't commonly used in production. The `q` param is already covered in the search API docs: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/master/search-search.html#search-api-query-params-q
* Adds a common options section that highlights narrative docs for query DSL, aggregations, multi-index search, search fields, pagination, sorting, and async search.
* Adds a `Search shard routing` page. Moves narrative docs for adaptive replica selection, preference, routing , and shard limits to that section.
* Moves search timeout and cancellation content to the `Search your data` page.
* Creates a `Search multiple data streams and indices` page. Moves related narrative docs for multi-target syntax searches and `indices_boost` to that page.
* Removes narrative examples for the `search_type` parameters. Moves documentation for this parameter to the search API docs.
Changes:
* Moves `Retrieve selected fields` to its own page and adds a title abbreviation.
* Adds existing script and stored fields content to `Retrieve selected fields`
* Adds a xref for `Retrieve selected fields` to `Search your data`
* Adds related redirects and updates existing xrefs
Plugin discovery documentation contained information about installing
Elasticsearch 2.0 and installing an oracle JDK, both of which is no
longer valid.
While noticing that the instructions used cleartext HTTP to install
packages, this commit replaces HTTPs links instead of HTTP where possible.
In addition a few community links have been removed, as they do not seem
to exist anymore.

This feature adds a new `fields` parameter to the search request, which
consults both the document `_source` and the mappings to fetch fields in a
consistent way. The PR merges the `field-retrieval` feature branch.
Addresses #49028 and #55363.
Moves the search sort docs from the deprecated 'Request Body Search'
page to a new subpage of 'Run a search'.
No substantive changes were made to the content.
