This is a follow up to #8143 and #6730 for _timestamp. It removes
support for `path`, as well as any field type settings, and
enables docvalues for _timestamp, for 2.0. Users who need to
adjust these settings can use a date field.
In order to get a quick overview using by simply checking the cluster state
and its corresponding cat API, the following two attributes have been added
to the cluster health response:
* task max waiting time, the time value of the first task of the
queue and how long it has been waiting
* active shards percent: The percentage of the number of shards that are in
initializing state
This makes the cluster health API handy to check, when a fully restarted
cluster is back up and running.
Closes#10805
The change makes rest-spec-api a project in the same way as we build dev-tools. it packages the tests and api in a bundle using the maven-remote-resources-plugin and uses the same plugin in the plugins and core pom to unpack the rest-api-spec into the target directory and references the rest tests there in the test resources.
The main stimulus for this change is that for those using Eclipse the current build does not work. After running `mvn eclipse:eclipse` the Eclipse IDE errors because the rest-api-spec is outside of the project scope, meaning that every time the command is run (required whenever any dependencies change), the class path of all the projects has to be manually fixed.
