The _Important Elasticsearch configuration_ docs lists a number of items
that you should consider before moving to production. Today this list
does not include configuring snapshots, even though they're very
important to have in production. This commit addresses that omission,
removes some repetition from the introductory paragraphs, and notes that
this config is handled for you on Cloud.

* Clarify that field data cache includes global ordinals
* Describe that the cache should be cleared once the limit is reached
* Clarify that the `_id` field does not supported aggregations anymore
* Fold the `fielddata` mapping parameter page into the `text field docs
* Improve cross-linking
This change adds an extra piece of information,
limits.total_ml_memory, to the ML info response.
This returns the total amount of memory that ML
is permitted to use for native processes across
all ML nodes in the cluster. Some of this may
already be in use; the value returned is total,
not available ML memory.
Clarifies differences between the
`cluster.routing.allocation.total_shards_per_node` and
`cluster.max_shards_per_node` cluster settings.
Closes#51839

This new API provides a way for users to upgrade their own anomaly job
model snapshots.
To upgrade a snapshot the following is done:
- Open a native process given the job id and the desired snapshot id
- load the snapshot to the process
- write the snapshot again from the native task (now updated via the
native process)

Include the attempted 'match_mapping_type' into the message,
so that it is clearer that multiple validation attempts have occurred.
Dynamic template validation was recently added via #51233 and
there was some confusion over the deprecation message itself.
(in 7.x only deprecation warning will be omitted and from 8.0
an error will be returned)
This adds support for the searchable_snapshot ILM action in the hot phase.
We define a series of actions that cannot be executed after the index has been
mounted as a searchable snapshot. Namely: freeze, forcemerge, shrink,
and searchable_snapshot (also available in the cold phase).
If by virtue of snapshot/restoring a managed index or updating an ILM policy while it
is executing for an index, these actions could get to be executed on an index that was
mounted as searchable snapshot in the hot phase. If this happens the actions will
skip entirely. ILM will not move into the ERROR step.
In the process of developing a new implementation for the Elasticsearch Rollups functionality we came up with the concept of the aggregate metric field type.
The aggregate_metric_double field type can store the results of aggregations (currently min, max, sum, value_count and avg are supported - more to come).
This field allows us to run (min, max, sum, value_count, avg) aggregations on the container field and the field will return the correct metric depending on the aggregation that is computed.
I'm not sure if this setting was left here deliberately? or by accident?
With all other node role definition has changed syntax from `node.xxx` to `node.roles: [ ]`, the ingest one is the only one left behind.
