Add notes on indexing to kNN search guide (#83188)
This change adds a new 'indexing considerations' section that explains why index
calls can be slow and how force merge can help search latency.

[DOCS] Reuse multi-level join warning (#82976)
Updates and reuses a warning against creating multi-level `join` fields to make it more prominent.

The current warning is low on the page, where some users may not seeing until they've already begun mapping fields.

Closes https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/issues/82818.

Allow doc-values only search on ip fields (#82929)
Allows searching on ip fields when those fields are not indexed (index: false) but just doc values are enabled.

This enables searches on archive data, which has access to doc values but not index structures. When combined with
searchable snapshots, it allows downloading only data for a given (doc value) field to quickly filter down to a select set
of documents.

Allow doc-values only search on date types (#82602)
Similar to #82409, but for date fields.

Allows searching on date field types (date, date_nanos) when those fields are not indexed (index: false) but just doc
values are enabled.

This enables searches on archive data, which has access to doc values but not index structures. When combined with
searchable snapshots, it allows downloading only data for a given (doc value) field to quickly filter down to a select set

Allow docvalues-only search on number types (#82409)
Allows searching on number field types (long, short, int, float, double, byte, half_float) when those fields are not
indexed (index: false) but just doc values are enabled.

This enables searches on archive data, which has access to doc values but not index structures. When combined with
searchable snapshots, it allows downloading only data for a given (doc value) field to quickly filter down to a select set
of documents.

Note to reviewers:

I have split isSearchable into two separate methods isIndexed and isSearchable on MappedFieldType. The former one is
about whether actual indexing data structures have been used (postings or points), and the latter one on whether you
can run queries on the given field (e.g. used by field caps). For number field types, queries are now allowed whenever
points are available or when doc values are available (i.e. searchability is expanded).

Reject zero-length vectors when using cosine similarity (#82241)
Cosine similarity is not defined when one of the vectors has zero magnitude.
Before, the kNN search endpoint threw a confusing exception related to top docs
collection. Now we reject vectors early with a clear error message, failing
indexing if the vector has zero magnitude.

Add docs for kNN search endpoint (#80378)
This commit adds docs for the new `_knn_search` endpoint.

It focuses on being an API reference and is light on details in terms of how
exactly the kNN search works, and how the endpoint contrasts with
`script_score` queries. We plan to add a high-level guide on kNN search that
will explain this in depth.

Relates to #78473.

Check nested fields earlier in kNN search (#80516)
Currently, we don't support kNN search against fields in a `nested` mapping.
Before, we were checking this at search-time. This commit moves it earlier, so
you aren't even allowed to set `index: true` if the vector is in a nested
mapping. That way, users are aware of the limitation before they start to index
documents.

indices.query.bool.max_clause_count now limits all query clauses (#75297)
In the upcoming Lucene 9 release, `indices.query.bool.max_clause_count` is
going to apply to the entire query tree rather than per `bool` query. In order
to avoid breaks, the limit has been bumped from 1024 to 4096.

The semantics will effectively change when we upgrade to Lucene 9, this PR
is only about agreeing on a migration strategy and documenting this change.

To avoid further breaks, I am leaning towards keeping the current setting name
even though it contains `bool`. I believe that it still makes sense given that
`bool` queries are typically the main contributors to high numbers of clauses.

Add support for range aggregations on histogram mapped fields (#74146)
This adds support for the range aggregation over `histogram` mapped fields.

Decisions made for implementation:

 - Sub-aggregations are not allowed. This is to simplify implementation and follows the prior art set by the `histogram` aggregation
 - Nothing fancy is done with the ranges. No filter translations as we cannot easily do a `range` filter query against histogram fields. This may be an optimization in the future.
 - Ranges check the histogram value ONLY. No interpolation of values is done. If we have better statistics around the histogram this MAY be possible.

Add dimension mapping parameter (#74450)

    Numeric field types (integer, long, byte, short)

to mark that a field is a time series dimension field.

Dynamic runtime to not dynamically create objects (#74234)
When we introduced dynamic:runtime (#65489) we decided to have it create objects dynamically under properties, as the runtime section did not (and still does not) support object fields. That proved to be a poor choice, because the runtime section is flat, supports dots in field names, and does not really need objects. Also, these end up causing unnecessary mapping conflicts.

With this commit we adapt dynamic:runtime to not dynamically create objects.
