Pass SearchLookup supplier through to fielddataBuilder (#61430) (#61638)
Runtime fields need to have a SearchLookup available, when building their fielddata implementations, so that they can look up other fields, runtime or not.

To achieve that, we add a Supplier<SearchLookup> argument to the existing MappedFieldType#fielddataBuilder method.

As we introduce the ability to look up other fields while building fielddata for mapped fields, we implicitly add the ability for a field to require other fields. This requires some protection mechanism that detects dependency cycles to prevent stack overflow errors.

With this commit we also introduce detection for cycles, as well as a limit on the depth of the references for a runtime field. Note that we also plan on introducing cycles detection at compile time, so the runtime cycles detection is a last resort to prevent stack overflow errors but we hope that we can reject runtime fields from being registered in the mappings when they create a cycle in their definition.

Note that this commit does not introduce any production implementation of runtime fields, but is rather a pre-requisite to merge the runtime fields feature branch.

This is a breaking change for MapperPlugins that plug in a mapper, as the signature of MappedFieldType#fielddataBuilder changes from taking a single argument (the index name), to also accept a Supplier<SearchLookup>.

Relates to #59332
