PRs #73062 and #73043 repurposed the `alias` anchor for a new guide for index
and data stream aliases. Previously, this anchor was used for our field alias
documentation.
Repurposing the anchor has caused continuity errors for users selecting
different versions of the ES docs. It could also cause confusion for users with
a `/current/` link to the `alias` page.
This updates the anchor for the alias guide and adds a redirect page to
disambiguate the `alias` anchor.
It also fixes a bread crumb issue for redirects following the 'Modifying your
Data' redirect page.
Closes#77034.
Clarifies that you cannot specify an alias in the delete index API. You _can_ delete indices with an alias.

This PR sets the default value of `action.destructive_requires_name`
to `true.` Fixes#61074. Additionally, we set this value explicitly in
test classes that rely on wildcard deletions to clear test state.
Several files in the REST APIs nav section are included using
:leveloffset: tags. This increments headings (h2 -> h3, h3 -> h4, etc.)
in those files and removes the :leveloffset: tags.
Other supporting changes:
* Alphabetizes top-level REST API nav items.
* Change 'indices APIs' heading to 'index APIs.'
* Changes 'Snapshot lifecycle management' heading to sentence case.
