[7.x] Adding new require_alias option to indexing requests (#58917) (#59769)

* Adding new `require_alias` option to indexing requests (#58917)

This commit adds the `require_alias` flag to requests that create new documents.

This flag, when `true` prevents the request from automatically creating an index. Instead, the destination of the request MUST be an alias.

When the flag is not set, or `false`, the behavior defaults to the `action.auto_create_index` settings.

This is useful when an alias is required instead of a concrete index.
