* Add top hits collapsing to search request
The field collapsing is done with a custom top docs collector that "collapse" search hits with same field value.
The distributed aspect is resolve using the two passes that the regular search uses. The first pass "collapse" the top hits, then the coordinating node merge/collapse the top hits from each shard.
```
GET _search
{
"collapse": {
"field": "category",
}
}
```
This change also adds an ExpandCollapseSearchResponseListener that intercepts the search response and expands collapsed hits using the CollapseBuilder#innerHit} options.
The retrieval of each inner_hits is done by sending a query to all shards filtered by the collapse key.
```
GET _search
{
"collapse": {
"field": "category",
"inner_hits": {
"size": 2
}
}
}
```
Currently both ProfileResult and CollectorResult print the time field in a human readable string format
(e.g. "time": "55.20315000ms"). When trying to parse this back to a long value, for example to use in
the planned high level java rest client, we can lose precision because of conversion and rounding issues.
This change adds a new additional field (`time_in_nanos`) to the profile response to be able to get the
original time value in nanoseconds back.
The old `time` field is only printed when the `?`human=true` flag in the url is set. This follow the behaviour for
all other stats-related apis. Also the format of the `time` field is slightly changed. Instead of always formatting
the output as a 10-digit ms value, by using the `XContentBuilder#timeValueField()` method we now print
the largest time unit present is used (e.g. "s", "ms", "micros").
This change disables the _all meta field by default.
Now that we have the "all-fields" method of query execution, we can save both
indexing time and disk space by disabling it.
_all can no longer be configured for indices created after 6.0.

* Replace _suggest endpoint to _search in docs
In 5.0, the _suggest endpoint is just sugar for _search
with suggestions specified. Users should move away from
using the _suggest endpoint, as it is marked as deprecated in 5.x and
will be removed in 6.0
* update docs to use _search endpoint instead of _suggest
* Add deprecation logging to RestSuggestAction
* Use search endpoint instead of suggest endpoint in rest tests
This change allows specifying alias/wildcard expression in indices_boost.
And added another format for specifying indices_boost. It accepts array of index name and boost pair.
If an index is included in multiple aliases/wildcard expressions, the first match will be used.
With new format, old format is marked as deprecated.
Closes#4756
* Include unindexed field in FieldStats response
This change adds non-searchable fields to the FieldStats response. These fields do not have min/max informations but they can be aggregatable. Fields that are only stored in _source (store:no, index:no, doc_values:no) will still be missing since they do not have any useful information to show. Indices and clients must be at least on V_5_2_0 to see this change.

Add indices and filter information to search shards api output
The search shards api returns info about which shards are going to be hit by executing a search with provided parameters: indices, routing, preference. Indices can also be aliases, which can also hold filters. The output includes an array of shards and a summary of all the nodes the shards are allocated on. This commit adds a new indices section to the search shards output that includes one entry per index, where each index can be associated with an optional filter in case the index was hit through a filtered alias.
This is relevant since we have moved parsing of alias filters to the coordinating node.

The `type` parameter has always been accepted by the search_shards api, probably to make the api and its urls the same as search. Truth is that the type never had any effect, it's been ignored from day one while accepting it may make users think that we actually do something with it.
This commit removes support for the type parameter from the REST layer and the Java API. Backwards compatibility is maintained on the transport layer though.
The new added serialization test also uncovered a bug in the java API where the `ClusterSearchShardsRequest` could be created with no arguments, but the indices were required to be not null otherwise the request couldn't be serialized as `writeTo` would throw NPE. Fixed by setting a default value (empty array) for indices.
As part of #20925 and #21341 we added an "all-fields" mode to the
`query_string` and `simple_query_string`. This would expand the query to
all fields and automatically set `lenient` to true.
However, we should still allow a user to override the `lenient` flag to
whichever value they desire, should they add it in the request. This
commit does that.
The first changed referred to an example of the 2.4 documentation. I removed the no longer relevant parts. We should consider adding a little more here.
The second change was just then->than in the suggest_mode popular section
We plan to deprecate `_suggest` during 5.0 so it isn't worth fixing
it to support the `_source` parameter for `_source` filtering. But we
should fix the docs so they are accurate.
Since this removes the last non-`// CONSOLE` line in
`completion-suggest.asciidoc` this also removes it from the list of
files that have non-`// CONSOLE` docs.
Closes#20482
Lucene 6.2 introduces the new `Analyzer.normalize` API, which allows to apply
only character-level normalization such as lowercasing or accent folding, which
is exactly what is needed to process queries that operate on partial terms such
as `prefix`, `wildcard` or `fuzzy` queries. As a consequence, the
`lowercase_expanded_terms` option is not necessary anymore. Furthermore, the
`locale` option was only needed in order to know how to perform the lowercasing,
so this one can be removed as well.
Closes#9978
This change adds a TypesQuery that checks if the disjunction of types should be rewritten to a MatchAllDocs query. The check is done only if the number of terms is below a threshold (16 by default and configurable via max_boolean_clause).
The shards preference on a search request enables specifying a list of
shards to hit, and then a secondary preference (e.g., "_primary") can be
added. Today, the separator between the shards list and the secondary
preference is ';'. Unfortunately, this is also a valid separtor for URL
query parameters. This means that a preference like "_shards:0;_primary"
will be parsed into two URL parameters: "_shards:0" and "_primary". With
the recent change to strict URL parsing, the second parameter will be
rejected, "_primary" is not a valid URL parameter on a search
request. This means that this feature has never worked (unless the ';'
is escaped, but no one does that because our docs do not that, and there
was no indication from Elasticsearch that this did not work). This
commit changes the separator to '|'.

Previously, this doc was using a field called "content". This is
confusing, especially when the doc starts talking about the content of
the content field. This change makes the field name "comment" which
is less ambiguous and also changes some related field names in the doc
to make a consistent example theme of editing docs around blog posts.
This causes the snippets to be tested during the build and gives
helpful links to the reader to open the docs in console or copy them
as curl commands.

Surprise! You can use sliced scroll to easily parallelize reindex
and friend. They support it because they use the same infrastructure
as a regular search to parse the search request. While we would like
to make an "automatic" option for parallelizing reindex, this manual
option works right now and is pretty convenient!
We can now run templates using `explain` and/or `profile` parameters.
Which is interesting when you have defined a complicated profile but want to debug it in an easier way than running the full query again.
You can use `explain` parameter when running a template:
```js
GET /_search/template
{
"file": "my_template",
"params": {
"status": [ "pending", "published" ]
},
"explain": true
}
```
You can use `profile` parameter when running a template:
```js
GET /_search/template
{
"file": "my_template",
"params": {
"status": [ "pending", "published" ]
},
"profile": true
}
```
`profile.asciidoc` now runs all of its command but it doesn't validate
all of the results. Writing the validation is time consuming so I only
did some of it.
* Update rescoring docs in respect to sort
If sort is present in a query the rescore query is not executed. As long as this feature is neither implemented (see discussion in #6788) nor the combination of sort and rescoring raises an error, we should warn the user in the documentation about this.
* Missed a dot
With the cut over to LatLonPoint the geohash, geohash_precision, lat_lon, and geohash_prefix parameters have been removed. This commit fixes the doc build by removing the remaining dangling references to these removed parameters.
This change replaces the fields parameter with stored_fields when it makes sense.
This is dictated by the renaming we made in #18943 for the search API.
The following list of endpoint has been changed to use `stored_fields` instead of `fields`:
* get
* mget
* explain
The documentation and the rest API spec has been updated to cope with the changes for the following APIs:
* delete_by_query
* get
* mget
* explain
The `fields` parameter has been deprecated for the following APIs (it is replaced by _source filtering):
* update: the fields are extracted from the _source directly.
* bulk: the fields parameter is used but fields are extracted from the source directly so it is allowed to have non-stored fields.
Some APIs still have the `fields` parameter for various reasons:
* cat.fielddata: the fields paramaters relates to the fielddata fields that should be printed.
* indices.clear_cache: used to indicate which fielddata fields should be cleared.
* indices.get_field_mapping: used to filter fields in the mapping.
* indices.stats: get stats on fields (stored or not stored).
* termvectors: fields are retrieved from the stored fields if possible and extracted from the _source otherwise.
* mtermvectors:
* nodes.stats: the fields parameter is used to concatenate completion_fields and fielddata_fields so it's not related to stored_fields at all.
