This commit removes support for JAVA_HOME. As we previously deprecated
usage of JAVA_HOME to override the path for the JDK, this commit follows
up by removing support for JAVA_HOME. Note that we do not treat
JAVA_HOME being set as a failure, as it is perfectly reasonable for a
user to have JAVA_HOME configured at the system level.
This commit removes the following deprecated settings in v8:
- `gateway.expected_nodes`
- `gateway.expected_master_nodes`
- `gateway.recover_after_nodes`
- `gateway.recover_after_master_nodes`

In 7.x the close indices API defaulted to `?wait_for_active_shards=0`
but from 8.0 it defaults to respecting the index settings instead. This
commit introduces the `index-setting` value for this parameter on this
API allowing users to opt-in to the future behaviour today, and emits a
deprecation warning indicating that the default no longer needs to be
used and will be unsupported in future.
In 7.x a follow up PR will introduce support for the same
`index-setting` value for this parameter and will emit deprecation
warnings if users try and use the default instead.
Relates #66419
In 8.x the default for `?wait_for_active_shards` changes from `NONE` to
`DEFAULT` on calls to `POST /index/_close`. This commit adds this change
to the breaking changes docs.

There is little evidence of this endpoint being used
and there is quite a lot of code complexity associated
with the various formats that can be used to upload
data and the different errors that can occur when direct
data upload is open to end users.
In a future release we can make this endpoint internal
so that only datafeeds can use it, and remove all the
options and formats that are not used by datafeeds.
End users will have to store their input data for
anomaly detection in Elasticsearch indices (which we
believe all do today) and use a datafeed to feed it
to anomaly detection jobs.
Today in `7.x` there is a deprecated system property that bypasses the
check that prevents nodes of incompatible builds from communicating.
This commit removes the system property in `master` so that the check is
always enforced.

Currently, if you write a date range query with numeric 'to' or 'from' bounds,
they can be interpreted as years if no format is provided. We use
"strict_date_optional_time||epoch_millis" in this case that can interpret inputs
like 1000 as the year 1000 for example.
This PR change this to always interpret and parse numbers with the "epoch_millis"
parser if no other formatter was provided.
Closes#63680
Follow up to #62623, this commit removes support in 8x for index-time boosts.
There is no longer a boost field on MappedFieldType. Indexes created in 8x
and after will throw exceptions if a boost parameter is included in mappings,
and indexes created in 7x will emit warnings.
We removed index-time boosting back in 5x, and we no longer document the 'boost'
parameter on any of our mapping types. However, it is still possible to define an
index-time boost on a field mapper for a surprisingly large number of field types, and
they even have an effect (sometimes, on some queries).
As a first step in finally removing all traces of index time boosting, this comment emits
a deprecation warning whenever a boost parameter is found on a mapping definition.
This commit deprecates the Repository Stats API added in 7.8.0 as
an experimental API behind a feature flag. The goal is to deprecate
this API in 7.10.0 and remove it in a follow up PR in 8.0.0.
This API is now superseded by the Repositories Metering API.
This change removes the HTTP content type required setting, which was
deprecated in 6.0 and only existed for users upgrading from 5.x so that
they did not need to remove the setting immediately. The setting has no
effect on behavior.
There is no point in timing out a join attempt any more. Timing out and
retrying with the same master is pointless, and an in-flight join
attempt to one master no longer blocks attempts to join other masters.
This commit removes this unnecessary setting.
Relates #60872 in which this setting was deprecated.
Updates the 8.0 breaking changes to clarify that passwords for the removed
`kibana` user are not preserved for the replacement `kibana_system` users.
Closes#59353
Today we already disallow negative values for the "from" parameter in the search
API when it is set as a request parameter and setting it on the
SearchSourceBuilder, but it is still parsed without complaint from a search
body, leading to differing exceptions later. This PR changes this behavior to be
the same regardless of setting the value directly, as url parameter or in the
search body. While we silently accepted "-1" as meaning "unset" and used the
default value of 0 so far, any negative from-value is now disallowed.
Closes#54897
In #39466 we removed all the settings in the `discovery.zen` namespace in 8.0
and documented their removal as a breaking change. Conspicuously absent from
the list of removed settings is the `discovery.zen.minimum_master_nodes`
setting, and there are two other omitted settings and a duplicated one too.
This commit fixes up these docs.
This commit removes the `prefer_v2_templates` flag and setting. This was a brief setting that
allowed specifying whether V1 or V2 template should be used when an index is created. It has been
removed in favor of V2 templates always having priority.

This is not a breaking change because this flag was never in a released version.
In 7.8.0, we deprecated the settings for disabling
basic license feature APIs. This PR removes those
settings altogether for 8.0. This is a breaking
change: if these options appear in elasticsearch.yml,
they will no longer be recognized.
