* 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`
