Note: this pull request is aimed to be merged in the replicated-closed-indices feature branch

This pull request allows shards of indices in CLOSE state to be replicated as normal shards. It changes the MetaDataIndexStateService so that index routing tables of closed indices are kept in cluster state when the index is closed. Index routing tables are modified so that shard routings are reinitialized with the INDEX_CLOSED unassigned information. The IndicesClusterStateService is modified to remove IndexService instances of closed or reopened indices. In combination with the ShardRouting being in INITIALIZING state the shards are recreated on the data nodes to reflect the new state. If the index state is closed, the IndexShard instances will be created using the NoOpEngine as the engine implementation.

This pull request also modifies the RestoreService so that primary terms are increased when indices are restored from snapshots. This is necessary in order to avoid shards to be restored with primary terms that have a value lower than the current primary term (which is increased when the index is closed).

This pull request also mutes two tests that rely on the fact that shard locks are released when an index is closed, which is not the case anymore with replicated closed indices (actually the locks are released but reacquired once the shard is reinitialized after being closed). These tests will be adapted in follow up PRs.

Finally, many things will require to be adapted or improved in follow up PRs (see  #33888) but this is the first big step towards replicated closed indices.

Left some smaller comments. Looking very good already.

for BWC reasons, I think we will need to keep this.

I guess you're thinking of the search context releasing?

Sorry for not being clear here. I was rather thinking about the case where an older-version master has removed the routing table for a closed index (i.e. old-style closed indices). We still need to handle these here.

…xisting indices (#38177)

When restoring shards of existing indices, the RestoreService also 
restores the values of primary terms stored in the snapshot index 
metadata. The primary terms are not updated and could potentially 
conflict with current index primary terms if the restored primary terms 
are lower than the existing ones.

This situation is likely to happen with replicated closed indices 
(because primary terms are increased when the index is transitioning 
from open to closed state, and the snapshotted primary terms are the
 one at the time the index was opened) (see #38024) and maybe also 
with CCR.

This commit changes the RestoreService so that it updates the primary 
terms using the maximum value between the snapshotted values and 
the existing values.

Before this change, closed indexes were simply not replicated. It was therefore 
possible to close an index and then decommission a data node without knowing 
that this data node contained shards of the closed index, potentially leading to 
data loss. Shards of closed indices were not completely taken into account when 
balancing the shards within the cluster, or automatically replicated through shard 
copies, and they were not easily movable from node A to node B using APIs like 
Cluster Reroute without being fully reopened and closed again.

This commit changes the logic executed when closing an index, so that its shards 
are not just removed and forgotten but are instead reinitialized and reallocated on 
data nodes using an engine implementation which does not allow searching or
 indexing, which has a low memory overhead (compared with searchable/indexable 
opened shards) and which allows shards to be recovered from peer or promoted 
as primaries when needed.

This new closing logic is built on top of the new Close Index API introduced in 
6.7.0 (#37359). Some pre-closing sanity checks are executed on the shards before 
closing them, and closing an index on a 8.0 cluster will reinitialize the index shards 
and therefore impact the cluster health.

Some APIs have been adapted to make them work with closed indices:
- Cluster Health API
- Cluster Reroute API
- Cluster Allocation Explain API
- Recovery API
- Cat Indices
- Cat Shards
- Cat Health
- Cat Recovery
