Today we say that voting-only nodes require a "low-latency" network.
This term has a specific meaning in some operating environments which is
different from our intended meaning. To avoid this confusion this commit
removes the absolute term "low-latency" in favour of describing the
requirements relative to the user's own performance goals.
Today we don't really say anything about the requirements for the data
path in terms of correctness, and we specifically say to avoid NFS for
performance reasons. This isn't wholly accurate: some NFS
implementations work just fine. This commit documents a more balanced
position on local vs remote storage.
Today we have a short note in one place in the docs saying not to touch
the contents of the data path. This commit expands the warning to
describe more precisely what is forbidden, and to give some more detail
of the consequences, and also duplicates the warning to the other
location that documents the `path.data` setting.

We document that master nodes should have a persistent data path but
it's a bit hard to understand that this is what the docs are saying and
we don't really say why it's important. This commit clarifies this
paragraph.

Today the docs on node roles say that you shouldn't use dedicated
masters for heavy requests such as indexing and searching, but as per
the "designing for resilience" docs this guidance applies to all client
requests. This commit generalises the node roles docs slightly to
clarify this.
Relates #70435
Today's network config docs are split into "Network", "HTTP" and
"Transport" pages, with unclear relationships between them. We often
encounter users with weird configs that indicate they don't really
understand how these settings all relate. In fact these pages are all
very interrelated, and the HTTP and Transport pages are almost all only
for advanced users. This commit brings these docs into a single page and
rewords some things to try and guide users away from the advanced
settings unless their configuration needs all the extra complexity.
It also adds a section entitled "Binding and publishing" which clarifies
the meanings of the `bind_host` and `publish_host` parameters. This is
also a common source of confusion amongst users.
It also clarifies that many of these settings accept a list of
addresses, and warns that this may not be what you want. Closes#67956.

I'm not sure if this setting was left here deliberately? or by accident?
With all other node role definition has changed syntax from `node.xxx` to `node.roles: [ ]`, the ingest one is the only one left behind.
This adds general overview documentation for data tiers,
the data tiers specific node roles, and their application in
ILM.

Today we have individual settings for configuring node roles such as
node.data and node.master. Additionally, roles are pluggable and we have
used this to introduce roles such as node.ml and node.voting_only. As
the number of roles is growing, managing these becomes harder for the
user. For example, to create a master-only node, today a user has to
configure:
- node.data: false
- node.ingest: false
- node.remote_cluster_client: false
- node.ml: false
at a minimum if they are relying on defaults, but also add:
- node.master: true
- node.transform: false
- node.voting_only: false
If they want to be explicit. This is also challenging in cases where a
user wants to have configure a coordinating-only node which requires
disabling all roles, a list which we are adding to, requiring the user
to keep checking whether a node has acquired any of these roles.
This commit addresses this by adding a list setting node.roles for which
a user has explicit control over the list of roles that a node has. If
the setting is configured, the node has exactly the roles in the list,
and not any additional roles. This means to configure a master-only
node, the setting is merely 'node.roles: [master]', and to configure a
coordinating-only node, the setting is merely: 'node.roles: []'.
With this change we deprecate the existing 'node.*' settings such as
'node.data'.
The following settings are now no-ops:
* xpack.flattened.enabled
* xpack.logstash.enabled
* xpack.rollup.enabled
* xpack.slm.enabled
* xpack.sql.enabled
* xpack.transform.enabled
* xpack.vectors.enabled
Since these settings no longer need to be checked, we can remove settings
parameters from a number of constructors and methods, and do so in this
commit.
We also update documentation to remove references to these settings.
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.
