Lukáš Vlček 98c7dd29a6 Fixing Nodes APIs issues
1. Fixing all reported dead links.
2. Changing `title` value in index.md back to plural form, i.e. "Nodes APIs".

The second change fixed missing child pages. I am not saying I insist on use of plural form but if we want to change it to a singular form then we also have to change `parent` fields in all child pages to correctly refer to valid parent, otherwise all child pages and content is missing.

As for the debate of use APIs vs API (plural vs singular) I just want to point out that right now there are many other parent pages using plural form. If we want to change that then I suggest doing it in separate PR and include other relevant parent pages too.

Closes: #591

# Nodes info
Represents mostly static information about your cluster's nodes, including but not limited to:
- Host system information
- JVM
- Processor Type
- Node settings
- Thread pools settings
- Installed plugins
## Example
To get information on all nodes in a cluster:
```bash
GET /_nodes
```
To get thread pool information from the cluster manager node only:
```bash
GET /_nodes/master:true/thread_pool?pretty
```
## Path and HTTP methods
```bash
GET /_nodes
GET /_nodes/{nodeId}
GET /_nodes/{metrics}
GET /_nodes/{nodeId}/{metrics}
# or full path equivalent
GET /_nodes/{nodeId}/info/{metrics}
```
## URL parameters
You can include the following URL parameters in your request. All parameters are optional.
Parameter | Type | Description
:--- |:-------| :---
nodeId | String | A comma-separated list of nodeIds to filter results. Supports [node filters]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/opensearch/rest-api/nodes-apis/index/#node-filters). Defaults to `_all`.
metrics | String | A comma-separated list of metric groups that will be included in the response. For example `jvm,thread_pools`. Defaults to all metrics.
timeout | TimeValue | A request [timeout]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/opensearch/rest-api/nodes-apis/index/#timeout). Defaults to `30s`.
The following are listed for all available metric groups:
Metric | Description
:--- |:----
`settings` | A node's settings. This is combination of the default settings, custom settings from [configuration file]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/opensearch/configuration/#configuration-file) and dynamically [updated settings]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/opensearch/configuration/#update-cluster-settings-using-the-api).
`os` | Static information about the host OS, including version, processor architecture and available/allocated processors.
`process` | Contains process OD.
`jvm` | Detailed static information about running JVM, including arguments.
`thread_pool` | Configured options for all individual thread pools.
`transport` | Mostly static information about the transport layer.
`http` | Mostly static information about the HTTP layer.
`plugins` | Information about installed plugins and modules.
`ingest` | Information about ingest pipelines and available ingest processors.
`aggregations` | Information about available [aggregations]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/opensearch/aggregations).
`indices` | Static index settings configured at the node level.
## Response
The response contains basic node identification and build info for every node
matching the `{nodeId}` request parameter.
Metric | Description
:--- |:----
name | A node name.
transport_address | A node transport address.
host | A node host address.
ip | A node host ip address.
version | A node OpenSearch version.
build_type | A build type, like `rpm`,`docker`, `zip`, etc.
build_hash | A git commit hash of the build.
roles | A node's role.
attributes | A node attributes.
The response also contains one or more metric groups, depending on the `{metrics}` request parameter.
