[DOCS] Refactor book-scoped variables in docs/reference/index.asciidoc (#107413)
* Remove `es-test-dir` book-scoped variable

* Remove `plugins-examples-dir` book-scoped variable

* Remove `:dependencies-dir:` and `:xes-repo-dir:` book-scoped variables

- In `index.asciidoc`, two variables (`:dependencies-dir:` and `:xes-repo-dir:`) were removed.
- In `sql/index.asciidoc`, the `:sql-tests:` path was updated to fuller path
- In `esql/index.asciidoc`, the `:esql-tests:` path was updated idem

* Replace `es-repo-dir` with `es-ref-dir`

* Move `:include-xpack: true` to few files that use it, remove from index.asciidoc

=== Get the lifecycle of a data stream
++++
<titleabbrev>Get Data Stream Lifecycle</titleabbrev>
++++
preview::[]
Gets the lifecycle of a set of data streams.
[[get-lifecycle-api-prereqs]]
==== {api-prereq-title}
* If the {es} {security-features} are enabled, you must have at least one of the `manage`
<<privileges-list-indices,index privilege>>, the `manage_data_stream_lifecycle` index privilege, or the
`view_index_metadata` privilege to use this API. For more information, see <<security-privileges>>.
[[data-streams-get-lifecycle-request]]
==== {api-request-title}
`GET _data_stream/<data-stream>/_lifecycle`
[[data-streams-get-lifecycle-desc]]
==== {api-description-title}
Gets the lifecycle of the specified data streams. If multiple data streams are requested but at least one of them
does not exist, then the API will respond with `404` since at least one of the requested resources could not be retrieved.
If the requested data streams do not have a lifecycle configured they will still be included in the API response but the
`lifecycle` key will be missing.
[[data-streams-get-lifecycle-path-params]]
==== {api-path-parms-title}
`<data-stream>`::
(Required, string) Comma-separated list of data streams used to limit the request. Supports wildcards (`*`).
To target all data streams use `*` or `_all`.
[role="child_attributes"]
[[get-data-lifecycle-api-query-parms]]
==== {api-query-parms-title}
include::{es-ref-dir}/rest-api/common-parms.asciidoc[tag=ds-expand-wildcards]
+
Defaults to `open`.
`include_defaults`::
(Optional, Boolean) If `true`, return all default settings in the response.
Defaults to `false`.
[role="child_attributes"]
[[get-lifecycle-api-response-body]]
==== {api-response-body-title}
`data_streams`::
(array of objects)
Contains information about retrieved data stream lifecycles.
+
.Properties of objects in `data_streams`
[%collapsible%open]
====
`name`::
(string)
Name of the data stream.
`lifecycle`::
(Optional, object)
+
.Properties of `lifecycle`
[%collapsible%open]
=====
`data_retention`::
(Optional, string)
If defined, every document added to this data stream will be stored at least for this time frame. Any time after this
duration the document could be deleted. When undefined, every document in this data stream will be stored indefinitely.
`rollover`::
(Optional, object)
The conditions which will trigger the rollover of a backing index as configured by the cluster setting
`cluster.lifecycle.default.rollover`. This property is an implementation detail and it will only be retrieved
when the query param `include_defaults` is set to `true`. The contents of this field are subject to change.
