This commit adds the functionality to allocate newly created indices on nodes in the "hot" tier by
default when they are created.
This does not break existing behavior, as nodes with the `data` role are considered to be part of
the hot tier. Users that separate their deployments by using the `data_hot` (and `data_warm`,
`data_cold`, `data_frozen`) roles will have their data allocated on the hot tier nodes now by
default.
This change is a little more complicated than changing the default value for
`index.routing.allocation.include._tier` from null to "data_hot". Instead, this adds the ability to
have a plugin inject a setting into the builder for a newly created index. This has the benefit of
allowing this setting to be visible as part of the settings when retrieving the index, for example:
```
// Create an index
PUT /eggplant
// Get an index
GET /eggplant?flat_settings
```
Returns the default settings now of:
```json
{
"eggplant" : {
"aliases" : { },
"mappings" : { },
"settings" : {
"index.creation_date" : "1597855465598",
"index.number_of_replicas" : "1",
"index.number_of_shards" : "1",
"index.provided_name" : "eggplant",
"index.routing.allocation.include._tier" : "data_hot",
"index.uuid" : "6ySG78s9RWGystRipoBFCA",
"index.version.created" : "8000099"
}
}
}
```
After the initial setting of this setting, it can be treated like any other index level setting.
This new setting is *not* set on a new index if any of the following is true:
- The index is created with an `index.routing.allocation.include.<anything>` setting
- The index is created with an `index.routing.allocation.exclude.<anything>` setting
- The index is created with an `index.routing.allocation.require.<anything>` setting
- The index is created with a null `index.routing.allocation.include._tier` value
- The index was created from an existing source metadata (shrink, clone, split, etc)
