9.0 backport docs query languages (#125113)
* Restructure query-languages docs files for clarity (#124797)

In a few previous PR's we restructured the ES|QL docs to make it possible to generate them dynamically.

This PR just moves a few files around to make the query languages docs easier to work with, and a little more organized like the ES|QL docs.

A bit part of this was setting up redirects to the new locations, so other repo's could correctly link to the elasticsearch docs.

* After running tests, we revert a few features

* Fix build.gradle and improved some generating code

* After running tests

* Update x-pack/plugin/esql/build.gradle

# Span first query [query-dsl-span-first-query]
Matches spans near the beginning of a field. Here is an example:
```console
GET /_search
{
"query": {
"span_first": {
"match": {
"span_term": { "user.id": "kimchy" }
},
"end": 3
}
}
}
```
The `match` clause can be any other span type query. The `end` controls the maximum end position permitted in a match.
