* 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

[IMPORTANT]
====
cat APIs are only intended for human consumption using the command line or {kib}
console. They are _not_ intended for use by applications. For application
consumption, use the <<cluster-pending,pending cluster tasks API>>.
====
Returns cluster-level changes that have not yet been executed, similar to the
<<cluster-pending, pending cluster tasks>> API.
