Deprecate cluster.routing.allocation.type (#94066)
Today users may select a shards allocator via the
`cluster.routing.allocation.type` setting. In practice this is only used
to select between the (default) desired-balance allocator and the legacy
allocator. With this commit we mark this setting as deprecated to
indicate that the desired-balance allocator will be the only choice in a
future release.
