This commit removes the `prefer_v2_templates` flag and setting. This was a brief setting that
allowed specifying whether V1 or V2 template should be used when an index is created. It has been
removed in favor of V2 templates always having priority.

This is not a breaking change because this flag was never in a released version.
In 7.8.0, we deprecated the settings for disabling
basic license feature APIs. This PR removes those
settings altogether for 8.0. This is a breaking
change: if these options appear in elasticsearch.yml,
they will no longer be recognized.
The following settings are now no-ops:
* xpack.flattened.enabled
* xpack.logstash.enabled
* xpack.rollup.enabled
* xpack.slm.enabled
* xpack.sql.enabled
* xpack.transform.enabled
* xpack.vectors.enabled
Since these settings no longer need to be checked, we can remove settings
parameters from a number of constructors and methods, and do so in this
commit.
We also update documentation to remove references to these settings.
* Make xpack.monitoring.enabled setting a no-op
This commit turns xpack.monitoring.enabled into a no-op. Mostly, this involved
removing the setting from the setup for integration tests. Monitoring may
introduce some complexity for test setup and teardown, so we should keep an eye
out for turbulence and failures
* Docs for making deprecated setting a no-op
* Make xpack.ilm.enabled setting a no-op
* Add watcher setting to not use ILM
* Update documentation for no-op setting
* Remove NO_ILM ml index templates
* Remove unneeded setting from test setup
* Inline variable definitions for ML templates
* Use identical parameter names in templates
* New ILM/watcher setting falls back to old setting
* Add fallback unit test for watcher/ilm setting

As a followup to #55411, this commit changes the default for the `?prefer_v2_templates` querystring
parameter to be `true`. This means that V2 templates will take precedence by default in 8.0+
Relates to #53101
We believe there's no longer a need to be able to disable basic-license
features completely using the "xpack.*.enabled" settings. If users don't
want to use those features, they simply don't need to use them. Having
such features always available lets us build more complex features that
assume basic-license features are present.
This commit deprecates settings of the form "xpack.*.enabled" for
basic-license features, excluding "security", which is a special case.
It also removes deprecated settings from integration tests and unit
tests where they're not directly relevant; e.g. monitoring and ILM are
no longer disabled in many integration tests.
In 7.8.0 the node.local_storage setting was deprecated in favor of
requiring all nodes to have a form of persistent storage. This commit
removes the node.local_storage setting.
This setting is not documented and has dubious value since it means
there can be nodes in the cluster (non-data and non-master nodes) that
do not have persistent node IDs. This does not have any use cases so
this commit removes the setting.
In Elasticsearch 7.7.0, the setting cluster.remote.connect was
deprecated. In this commit, we remote the setting permanently in favor
of setting node.remote_cluster_client.
This commit completes the work to remove the listener thread pool,
having removed all uses of it in the server codebase, and deprecated it
in 7.x. With this commit, we also remove the infrastructgure to
deprecate a fixed thread pool, which was added as part of this work,
since it is easy to bring back if needed.
The processors setting was deprecated in version 7.4.0 of Elasticsearch
for removal in Elasticsearch 8.0.0. This commit removes the processors
setting.
We deprecated these settings awhile ago, in favor of cluster.remote. In
7.x we were gentle and provided automatic upgrade of these settings to
the new settings. Now it is time for them to go. This commit removes the
deprecated search.remote settings.
