Plugin discovery documentation contained information about installing
Elasticsearch 2.0 and installing an oracle JDK, both of which is no
longer valid.
While noticing that the instructions used cleartext HTTP to install
packages, this commit replaces HTTPs links instead of HTTP where possible.
In addition a few community links have been removed, as they do not seem
to exist anymore.
* Adding ESS icons to supported ES settings.
* Adding new file for supported ESS settings.
* Adding supported ESS settings for HTTP and disk-based shard allocation.
* Adding more supported settings for ESS.
* Adding descriptions for each Cloud section, plus additional settings.

* Changing underscore to dash in link to fix ci build.
* Forbid read-only-allow-delete block in blocks API
The read-only-allow-delete block is not really under the user's control
since Elasticsearch adds/removes it automatically. This commit removes
support for it from the new API for adding blocks to indices that was
introduced in #58094.
* Missing xref
* Reword paragraph on read-only-allow-delete block
Adds an API for putting an index block in place, which also ensures for write blocks that, once successfully returning to
the user, all shards of the index are properly accounting for the block, for example that all in-flight writes to an index have
been completed after adding the write block.
This API allows coordinating more complex workflows, where it is crucial that an index is no longer receiving writes after
the API completes, useful for example when marking an index as read-only during an upgrade in order to reindex its
documents.
Setting a slow log level requires an unnecessary conditional logic in SearchSlowLog and IndexingSlowLog
The behaviour of setting a level on a slow logger can be achieved with correct slow log threshold settings.
This PR is removing slow log and modifies tests to achieve the same behaviour with changing threshold.
relates #56171
The use of available processors, the terminology, and the settings
around it have evolved over time. This commit cleans up some places in
the codes and in the docs to adjust to the current terminology.
This commit adjusts a `deprecation[...]` message in the docs since such
messages must be on a single line. It also moves this message to the start of
the description of the deprecated setting as is the case with other such
messages.
Indices open with the `niofs` store type load much more data on-heap than
indices open with the `mmapfs` store type. This limitation is now documented
and examples have been updated to show how to update settings to use the
`mmapfs` store type rather than `niofs`.
The translog retention settings index.translog.retention.size and
index.translog.retention.age were effectively ignored in 7.4,
deprecated in 7.7, and now removed in 8.0 in favor of soft-deletes.
Closes#50775
Updates snippet to consistently use 2-space indentation. The snippet

Synced flush was a brilliant idea. It supports instant recoveries with a
quite small implementation. However, with the presence of sequence
numbers and retention leases, it is no longer needed. This change
removes it from 8.0.
Relates #5077
This commit updates the docs about translog retention and flushing to reflect
recent changes in how peer recoveries work. It also adds some docs to describe
how history is retained for replay using soft deletes and shard history
retention leases.
Relates #45473
this field can be present in search slow logs and deprecation logs. The
docs describes how to enable this functionality and what expect in logs.
closes#44851
Since #45136, we use soft-deletes instead of translog in peer recovery.
There's no need to retain extra translog to increase a chance of
operation-based recoveries. This commit ignores the translog retention
policy if soft-deletes is enabled so we can discard translog more
quickly.

The basic models `b, de, p` and the after effect `no`
are not available anymore in Lucene 8 but they are still
listed in the >7x documentation. This change removes these
references that should also be listed in the breaking change
of es 7.0.
