[DOCS] Move x-pack docs to docs/reference dir (#99209)
**Problem:**
For historical reasons, source files for the Elasticsearch Guide's security, watcher, and Logstash API docs are housed in the `x-pack/docs` directory. This can confuse new contributors who expect Elasticsearch Guide docs to be located in `docs/reference`. 

**Solution:**
- Move the security, watcher, and Logstash API doc source files to the `docs/reference` directory
- Update doc snippet tests to use security

The following example stops the watcher service:
[source,java]
--------------------------------------------------
WatcherServiceResponse watcherServiceResponse = watcherClient.prepareWatchService().stop().get();
