There are a two major features that are not yet supported by BKD Backed geo_shape: MultiPoint queries, and CONTAINS relation support. It is important we are explicitly clear in the documentation that using the new approach may not work for users that depend on these features. This PR adds an IMPORTANT NOTE section to geo_shape docs that explicitly highlights these missing features and what should be done if they are an absolute necessity.

Thanks @nknize. What is the current behavior when issuing a multi-point query, do users get an error saying that this is unsupported?

* `geo_shape` query with `MultiPoint` geometry types - Elasticsearch currently prevents searching
geo_shape fields with a MultiPoint geometry type to avoid a brute force linear search
over each individual point. For now, if this is absolutely needed, this can be achieved
using a `Bool` query with each individual point.

The following features are not yet supported with the new indexing approach:

Do we actually raise an error if a user uses a multi-point to search, or do we return wrong results?

We issue a QueryShardException stating MultiPoint queries are not supported.
