Remove HLRC docs and related integration tests. (#81358)
The HLRC will no longer be published from 8.0.0 and onwards.
Also the HLRC docs are no longer published, so these can be removed now.

The HLRC is currently used in a number of java rest tests and
for this reason it can't be removed completely.

== Overview
removed[8.0.0, The High Level REST Client has been removed in favour of the {java-api-client}/index.html[Java API Client].]
The Java REST Client comes in 2 flavors:
* The official low-level client for Elasticsearch.
It allows to communicate with an Elasticsearch cluster through http.
Leaves requests marshalling and responses un-marshalling to users.
It is compatible with all Elasticsearch versions.
* <<java-rest-high>>: the official high-level client for Elasticsearch.
Based on the low-level client, it exposes API specific methods and takes care
of requests marshalling and responses un-marshalling. This Java High Level
REST Client was deprecated since 7.15.0 and is no longer available from 8.0.0.
The new {java-api-client}/index.html[Java API Client] should be used instead.
