* Make xpack.monitoring.enabled setting a no-op
This commit turns xpack.monitoring.enabled into a no-op. Mostly, this involved
removing the setting from the setup for integration tests. Monitoring may
introduce some complexity for test setup and teardown, so we should keep an eye
out for turbulence and failures
* Docs for making deprecated setting a no-op
We believe there's no longer a need to be able to disable basic-license
features completely using the "xpack.*.enabled" settings. If users don't
want to use those features, they simply don't need to use them. Having
such features always available lets us build more complex features that
assume basic-license features are present.
This commit deprecates settings of the form "xpack.*.enabled" for
basic-license features, excluding "security", which is a special case.
It also removes deprecated settings from integration tests and unit
tests where they're not directly relevant; e.g. monitoring and ILM are
no longer disabled in many integration tests.
This change adds a new `kibana_admin` role, and deprecates
the old `kibana_user` and`kibana_dashboard_only_user`roles.
The deprecation is implemented via a new reserved metadata
attribute, which can be consumed from the API and also triggers
deprecation logging when used (by a user authenticating to
Elasticsearch).
Some docs have been updated to avoid references to these
deprecated roles.

Now that https://github.com/elastic/beats/pull/9118 is merged, starting 7.1 users will be able configure Metricbeat for monitoring Elasticsearch nodes using a simpler syntax.
Previously, users would have to run `metricbeat modules enable elasticsearch` to enable the `elasticsearch` Metricbeat module, then configure the module for Stack Monitoring by manually editing `modules.d/elasticsearch.yml`. Going forward, users will be able to achieve the same effect by running `metricbeat modules enable elasticsearch-xpack`.
This PR updates the docs with this change.

These docs are out of date, now that we override the infinite DNS cache
within Elasticsearch. This commit completely removes this content, as
specific guidance is no longer needed here.
This deprecates the `xpack.watcher.history.cleaner_service.enabled` setting,
since all newly created `.watch-history` indices in 7.0 will use ILM to manage
their retention.
In 8.0 the setting itself and cleanup actions will be removed.
Resolves#32041
`+` for index name inclusions is no longer supported for 6.x+. This
commit removes references of the `+` from the documenation. System
indices additional example is also included.
