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.

Span near query [query-dsl-span-near-query]

Matches spans which are near one another. One can specify slop, the maximum number of intervening unmatched positions, as well as whether matches are required to be in-order. Here is an example:

GET /_search
{
  "query": {
    "span_near": {
      "clauses": [
        { "span_term": { "field": "value1" } },
        { "span_term": { "field": "value2" } },
        { "span_term": { "field": "value3" } }
      ],
      "slop": 12,
      "in_order": false
    }
  }
}

The clauses element is a list of one or more other span type queries and the slop controls the maximum number of intervening unmatched positions permitted.
