Add a `_freeze` / `_unfreeze` API (#35592)
This commit adds a rest endpoint for freezing and unfreezing an index.
Among other cleanups mainly fixing an issue accessing package private APIs
from a plugin that got caught by integration tests this change also adds
documentation for frozen indices.
Note: frozen indices are marked as `beta` and available as a basic feature.

[Scripting] Make Max Script Length Setting Dynamic (#35184)
This changes the current script.max_size_in_bytes to be dynamic so it can be 
set through the cluster settings API. This setting is also applied to inline scripts 
in the compile method of ScriptService to prevent excessively long inline 
scripts from being compiled. The script length limit is removed from Painless as 
this is no longer necessary with the protection in compile.

Allow to enable pings for specific remote clusters (#34753)
When we connect to remote clusters, there may be a few more routers/firewalls in-between compared to when we connect to nodes in the same cluster. We've experienced cases where firewalls drop connections completely and keep-alives seem not to be enough, or they are not properly configured. With this commit we allow to enable application-level pings specifically from CCS nodes to the selected remote nodes through the new setting `cluster.remote.${clusterAlias}.transport.ping_schedule`.  The new setting is similar `transport.ping_schedule` but it does not affect intra-cluster communication, pings are only sent to specific remote cluster when specifically enabled, as they are disabled by default.

Add cluster-wide shard limit warnings (#34021)
In a future major version, we will be introducing a soft limit on the
number of shards in a cluster based on the number of nodes in the
cluster. This limit will be configurable, and checked on operations
which create or open shards and issue a warning if the operation would
take the cluster over the limit.

There is an option to enable strict enforcement of the limit, which
turns the warnings into errors.  In a future release, the option will be
removed and strict enforcement will be the default (and only) behavior.

Separate remote clusters docs from CCS (#34612)
With remote clusters taking on a larger role, we have make the
infrastructure more generic than being tied to cross-cluster search
(CCS). We want to refer to the remote clusters configuration in the
cross-cluster replication (CCR) docs. Yet, these docs are still tied to
CCS. This commit extracts the remote clusters docs from CCS (with some
wording changes to make them more general) so that we can refer to them
in the CCR docs.

[DOCS] Note that User Cluster Metadata is not private (#34156)
As user-defined cluster metadata is accessible to anyone with access to
get the cluster settings, stored in the logs, and likely to be tracked
by monitoring solutions, it is useful to clarify in the documentation
that it should not be used to store secret information.

Emphasize that filesystem-level backups don't work (#33102)
It is not obvious that a filesystem-level backup may capture an inconsistent
set of files that may fail on restore, or (worse) succeed having silently
discarded some data. This change spells the out, and reorganises the first page
or so of the snapshot/restore docs to make this warning fit more nicely.

Add `_source`-only snapshot repository (#32844)
This change adds a `_source` only snapshot repository that allows to wrap
any existing repository as a _backend_ to snapshot only the `_source` part
including live docs markers. Snapshots taken with the `source` repository
won't include any indices,  doc-values or points. The snapshot will be reduced in size and
functionality such that it requires full re-indexing after it's successfully restored.

The restore process will copy the `_source` data locally starts a special shard and engine
to allow `match_all` scrolls and searches. Any other query, or get call will fail with and unsupported operation exception.  The restored index is also marked as read-only.

This feature aims mainly for disaster recovery use-cases where snapshot size is
a concern or where time to restore is less of an issue.

**NOTE**: The snapshot produced by this repository is still a valid lucene index. This change doesn't allow for any longer retention policies which is out of scope for this change.

Generalize search.remote settings to cluster.remote (#33413)
With features like CCR building on the CCS infrastructure, the settings
prefix search.remote makes less sense as the namespace for these remote
cluster settings than does a more general namespace like
cluster.remote. This commit replaces these settings with cluster.remote
with a fallback to the deprecated settings search.remote.

Move file-based discovery to core (#33241)
Today we support a static list of seed hosts in core Elasticsearch, and allow a
dynamic list of seed hosts to be provided via a file using the `discovery-file`
plugin. In fact the ability to provide a dynamic list of seed hosts is
increasingly useful, so this change moves this functionality to core
Elasticsearch to avoid the need for a plugin.

Furthermore, in order to start up nodes in integration tests we currently
assign a known port to each node before startup, which unfortunately sometimes
fails if another process grabs the selected port in the meantime. By moving the
`discovery-file` functionality into the core product we can use it to avoid
this race.

This change also moves the expected path to the file from
`$ES_PATH_CONF/discovery-file/unicast_hosts.txt` to
`$ES_PATH_CONF/unicast_hosts.txt`. An example of this file is not included in
distributions.

For BWC purposes the plugin still exists, but does nothing more than create the
example file in the old location, and issue a warning when it is used. We also
continue to support the old location for the file, but warn about its
deprecation.

Circuit-break based on real memory usage
With this commit we introduce a new circuit-breaking strategy to the parent
circuit breaker. Contrary to the current implementation which only accounts for
memory reserved via child circuit breakers, the new strategy measures real heap
memory usage at the time of reservation. This allows us to be much more
aggressive with the circuit breaker limit so we bump it to 95% by default. The
new strategy is turned on by default and can be controlled  with the new cluster
setting `indices.breaker.total.userealmemory`.

Note that we turn it off for all integration tests with an internal test cluster
because it leads to spurious test failures which are of no value (we cannot
fully control heap memory usage in tests). All REST tests, however, will make
use of the real memory circuit breaker.

Account for XContent overhead in in-flight breaker
So far the in-flight request circuit breaker has only accounted for the
on-the-wire representation of a request. However, we convert the raw
request into XContent internally which increases the overhead.
Therefore, we increase the value of the corresponding setting
`network.breaker.inflight_requests.overhead` from one to two. While this
value is still rather conservative (we assume that the representation as
structured objects has no overhead compared to the byte[]), it is closer
to reality than the current value.

This is related to #29500 and #28898. This commit removes the abilitiy
to disable http pipelining. After this commit, any elasticsearch node
will support pipelined requests from a client. Additionally, it extracts
some of the http pipelining work to the server module. This extracted
work is used to implement pipelining for the nio plugin.

Network: Remove http.enabled setting (#29601)
This commit removes the http.enabled setting. While all real nodes (started with bin/elasticsearch) will always have an http binding, there are many tests that rely on the quickness of not actually needing to bind to 2 ports. For this case, the MockHttpTransport.TestPlugin provides a dummy http transport implementation which is used by default in ESIntegTestCase.

Fail snapshot operations early on repository corruption (#30140)

Jason Tedor c12c2a6cc9 Rename the bulk thread pool to write thread pool (#29593)
This commit renames the bulk thread pool to the write thread pool. This
is to better reflect the fact that the underlying thread pool is used to
execute any document write request (single-document index/delete/update
requests, and bulk requests).

With this change, we add support for fallback settings
thread_pool.bulk.* which will be supported until 7.0.0.

We also add a system property so that the display name of the thread
pool remains as "bulk" if needed to avoid breaking users.

Introduce analyze thread pool (#29541)
We want to remove the index thread pool as it is no longer needed since
single-document indexing requests are executed as bulk requests
now. Analyze requests are also executed on the index thread pool though
and they need a thread pool to execute on. The bulk thread does not seem
like the right thread pool, let us keep that thread pool conceptually
for bulk requests and free for bulk requests. None of the existing
thread pools make sense for analyze requests either. The generic thread
pool would be a terrible choice since it has an unbounded queue and that
is a bad idea for user-facing APIs. This commit introduces a small by
default (size=1, queue_size=16) thread pool for analyze requests.
