Creates a `ROUND_TO` function that rounds it's input to one of the
provided values. Like so:
```
ROUND_TO(v, 0, 5000, 10000, 20000, 40000, 100000)
v | ROUND_TO
0 | 0
100 | 0
6000 | 5000
45001 | 40000
999999 | 100000
```
For some sequences of numbers you could do this with the `/` operator -
but for arbitrary sequences of numbers you needed `CASE` which is quite
slow. And hard to read!
Rewriting the example above would look like:
```
CASE (
v < 5000, 0,
v < 10000, 5000,
v < 20000, 10000,
v < 40000, 20000,
v < 100000, 40000,
100000
)
```
Even better, this is *fast*:
```
(operation) Mode Cnt Score Error Units
round_to_4_via_case avgt 7 138.124 ± 0.738 ns/op
round_to_4 avgt 7 0.805 ± 0.011 ns/op
round_to_3 avgt 7 0.739 ± 0.011 ns/op
round_to_2 avgt 7 0.651 ± 0.009 ns/op
date_trunc avgt 7 2.425 ± 0.018 ns/op
```
I've included a comparison to `DATE_TRUNC` above because we should be
able to rewrite `DATE_TRUNC` into `ROUND_TO` when we know the date range
of the index. This doesn't do it now, but it should be possible.
Documents that the VALUES aggregate function returns unique documents
and points folks to the TOP aggregate function if they want to keep
dupes.

This splits the grouping functions in two: those that can be evaluated independently through the EVAL operator (`BUCKET`) and those that don't (like those that that are evaluated through an agg operator, `CATEGORIZE`).
Closes#124608
While the internal structure of the docs is already split into many (over 1000) sub-pages, the final display for the `Functions and Operators` page is a single giant page, making navigation harder. This PR splits it into separate pages, one for each group of similar functions and one for the operators. Twelve new pages.
This PR also bundles a few other related changes. In total what is done is:
* Split functions/operators into 12 pages, one for each group, maintaining the existing split of each function/operator into a snippet with dynamically generated examples
* Split esql-commands.md into source-commands.md and processing-commands.md, each of which is split into individual snippets, one for each command
* Each command snippet has it's examples split out into separate files, if they were examples that were dynamically generated in the older asciidoc system
* The examples files are overwritten by the ES|QL unit tests, using a similar mechanism to the examples written for functions and operators)
* Some additional refinements to the Kibana definition and markdown files (nicer operator headings, and display text)
Originally, `DATE_TRUNC` only supported 1-month and 3-month intervals for months, and 1-year interval for years, while arbitrary intervals were supported for weeks and days. This PR adds support for `DATE_TRUNC` with arbitrary month and year intervals.
Closes#120094
This PR was originally focused on improving support for Kibana docs, in particular the missing operator docs, but it has expanded to cover a bunch of related things:
* Primarily the main work was to improve operators support. ESQL generated docs cover all functions and most operators for which their is a clear operator class and test class. However, some are built-in behaviour and need additional support. This PR adds more generated content for those operators.
* Various specific operators requested by Kibana: Cast & null-predicates, and in particular the addition of examples
* Two functions without examples: mv_append and to_date_nanos
* Many small visual document cleanups (spelling, grammar, capitalization, etc.)
* Initial support for `applies_to` for multi-version differentiation.
This last point requires more work, as it is not yet agreed on just how we want this to look. We'll probably need to do refinements in followup PR. Consider the version in this PR as a first step into how this could look.
This commit adds a conversion function from numerics (and aggregate
metric doubles) to aggregate metric doubles.
It is most useful when you have multiple indices, where one index uses
aggregate metric double (e.g. a downsampled index) and another uses a
normal numeric type like long or double (e.g. an index prior to
downsampling).
In a few previous PR's we restructured the ES|QL docs to make it possible to generate them dynamically.
This PR just moves a few files around to make the query languages docs easier to work with, and a little more organized like the ES|QL docs.
A bit part of this was setting up redirects to the new locations, so other repo's could correctly link to the elasticsearch docs.
Building on the work started in https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/pull/123904, we now want to auto-generate most of the small subfiles from the ES|QL functions unit tests.
This work also investigates any remaining discrepancies between the original asciidoc version and the new markdown, and tries to minimize differences so the docs do not look too different.
The kibana json and markdown files are moved to a new location, and the operator docs are a little more generated than before (although still largely manual).
