Remove discovery-file plugin (#33257)
In #33241 we moved the file-based discovery functionality to core
Elasticsearch, but preserved the `discovery-file` plugin, and support for the
existing location of the `unicast_hosts.txt` file, for BWC reasons. This commit
completes the removal of this plugin.

== Discovery Plugins
Discovery plugins extend Elasticsearch by adding new discovery mechanisms that
can be used instead of {ref}/modules-discovery-zen.html[Zen Discovery].

==== Core discovery plugins
The core discovery plugins are:
<<discovery-ec2,EC2 discovery>>::
The EC2 discovery plugin uses the https://github.com/aws/aws-sdk-java[AWS API] for unicast discovery.
<<discovery-azure-classic,Azure Classic discovery>>::
The Azure Classic discovery plugin uses the Azure Classic API for unicast discovery.
<<discovery-gce,GCE discovery>>::
The Google Compute Engine discovery plugin uses the GCE API for unicast discovery.
