This commit adds retention to the existing Snapshot Lifecycle Management feature (#38461) as described in #43663. This allows a user to configure SLM to automatically delete older snapshots based on a number of criteria.

An example policy would look like:

PUT /_slm/policy/snapshot-every-day
{
  "schedule": "0 30 2 * * ?",
  "name": "<production-snap-{now/d}>",
  "repository": "my-s3-repository",
  "config": {
    "indices": ["foo-*", "important"]
  },
  // Newly configured retention options
  "retention": {
    // Snapshots should be deleted after 14 days
    "expire_after": "14d",
    // Keep a maximum of thirty snapshots
    "max_count": 30,
    // Keep a minimum of the four most recent snapshots
    "min_count": 4
  }
}

SLM Retention is run on a scheduled configurable with the slm.retention_schedule setting, which supports cron expressions. Deletions are run for a configurable time bounded by the slm.retention_duration setting, which defaults to 1 hour.

Included in this work is a new SLM stats API endpoint available through

GET /_slm/stats

That returns statistics about snapshot taken and deleted, as well as successful retention runs, failures, and the time spent deleting snapshots. #45362 has more information as well as an example of the output. These stats are also included when retrieving SLM policies via the API.

SLM Retention is run on a scheduled configurable with the `slm.retention_schedule` setting, which supports cron expressions. Deletions are run for a configurable time bounded by the `slm.retention_duration` setting, which defaults to 1 hour.

* Add base framework for snapshot retention (elastic#43605)

* Add base framework for snapshot retention

This adds a basic `SnapshotRetentionService` and `SnapshotRetentionTask`
to start as the basis for SLM's retention implementation.

Relates to elastic#38461

* Remove extraneous 'public'

* Use a local var instead of reading class var repeatedly

* Add SnapshotRetentionConfiguration for retention configuration (elastic#43777)

* Add SnapshotRetentionConfiguration for retention configuration

This commit adds the `SnapshotRetentionConfiguration` class and its HLRC
counterpart to encapsulate the configuration for SLM retention.
Currently only a single parameter is supported as an example (we still
need to discuss the different options we want to support and their
names) to keep the size of the PR down. It also does not yet include version serialization checks
since the original SLM branch has not yet been merged.

Relates to elastic#43663

* Fix REST tests

* Fix more documentation

* Use Objects.equals to avoid NPE

* Put `randomSnapshotLifecyclePolicy` in only one place

* Occasionally return retention with no configuration

* Implement SnapshotRetentionTask's snapshot filtering and delet… (elastic#44764)

* Implement SnapshotRetentionTask's snapshot filtering and deletion

This commit implements the snapshot filtering and deletion for
`SnapshotRetentionTask`. Currently only the expire-after age is used for
determining whether a snapshot is eligible for deletion.

Relates to elastic#43663

* Fix deletes running on the wrong thread

* Handle missing or null policy in snap metadata differently

* Convert Tuple<String, List<SnapshotInfo>> to Map<String, List<SnapshotInfo>>

* Use the `OriginSettingClient` to work with security, enhance logging

* Prevent NPE in test by mocking Client

* Allow empty/missing SLM retention configuration (elastic#45018)

Semi-related to elastic#44465, this allows the `"retention"` configuration map
to be missing.

Relates to elastic#43663

* Add min_count and max_count as SLM retention predicates (elastic#44926)

This adds the configuration options for `min_count` and `max_count` as
well as the logic for determining whether a snapshot meets this criteria
to SLM's retention feature.

These options are optional and one, two, or all three can be specified
in an SLM policy.

* Time-bound deletion of snapshots in retention delete function (elastic#45065)

* Time-bound deletion of snapshots in retention delete function

With a cluster that has a large number of snapshots, it's possible that
snapshot deletion can take a very long time (especially since deletes
currently have to happen in a serial fashion). To prevent snapshot
deletion from taking forever in a cluster and blocking other operations,
this commit adds a setting to allow configuring a maximum time to spend
deletion snapshots during retention. This dynamic setting defaults to 1
hour and is best-effort, meaning that it doesn't hard stop a deletion
at an hour mark, but ensures that once the time has passed, all
subsequent deletions are deferred until the next retention cycle.

Relates to elastic#43663

* Wow snapshots suuuure can take a long time.

* Use a LongSupplier instead of actually sleeping

* Remove TestLogging annotation

* Remove rate limiting

* Add SLM metrics gathering and endpoint (elastic#45362)

* Add SLM metrics gathering and endpoint

This commit adds the infrastructure to gather metrics about the different SLM actions that a cluster
takes. These actions are stored in `SnapshotLifecycleStats` and perpetuated in cluster state. The
stats stored include the number of snapshots taken, failed, deleted, the number of retention runs,
as well as per-policy counts for snapshots taken, failed, and deleted. It also includes the amount
of time spent deleting snapshots from SLM retention.

This commit also adds an endpoint for retrieving all stats (further commits will expose this in the
SLM get-policy API) that looks like:

```
GET /_slm/stats
{
  "retention_runs" : 13,
  "retention_failed" : 0,
  "retention_timed_out" : 0,
  "retention_deletion_time" : "1.4s",
  "retention_deletion_time_millis" : 1404,
  "policy_metrics" : {
    "daily-snapshots2" : {
      "snapshots_taken" : 7,
      "snapshots_failed" : 0,
      "snapshots_deleted" : 6,
      "snapshot_deletion_failures" : 0
    },
    "daily-snapshots" : {
      "snapshots_taken" : 12,
      "snapshots_failed" : 0,
      "snapshots_deleted" : 12,
      "snapshot_deletion_failures" : 6
    }
  },
  "total_snapshots_taken" : 19,
  "total_snapshots_failed" : 0,
  "total_snapshots_deleted" : 18,
  "total_snapshot_deletion_failures" : 6
}
```

This does not yet include HLRC for this, as this commit is quite large on its own. That will be
added in a subsequent commit.

* Version qualify serialization

* Initialize counters outside constructor

* Use computeIfAbsent instead of being too verbose

* Move part of XContent generation into subclass

* Fix REST action for master merge

* Unused import

*  Record history of SLM retention actions (elastic#45513)

This commit records the deletion of snapshots by the retention component
of SLM into the SLM history index for the purposes of reviewing operations
taken by SLM and alerting.

* Retry SLM retention after currently running snapshot completes (elastic#45802)

* Retry SLM retention after currently running snapshot completes

This commit adds a ClusterStateObserver to wait until the currently
running snapshot is complete before proceeding with snapshot deletion.
SLM retention waits for the maximum allowed deletion time for the
snapshot to complete, however, the waiting time is not factored into
the limit on actual deletions.

Relates to elastic#43663

* Increase timeout waiting for snapshot completion

* Apply patch

From https://github.com/original-brownbear/elasticsearch/commit/2374316f0d1912c9e1498bece195546a1dc60bce.patch

* Rename test variables

* [TEST] Be less strict for stats checking

* Skip SLM retention if ILM is STOPPING or STOPPED (elastic#45869)

This adds a check to ensure we take no action during SLM retention if
ILM is currently stopped or in the process of stopping.

Relates to elastic#43663

* Check all actions preventing snapshot delete during retention (elastic#45992)

* Check all actions preventing snapshot delete during retention run

Previously we only checked to see if a snapshot was currently running,
but it turns out that more things can block snapshot deletion. This
changes the check to be a check for:

- a snapshot currently running
- a deletion already in progress
- a repo cleanup in progress
- a restore currently running

This was found by CI where a third party delete in a test caused SLM
retention deletion to throw an exception.

Relates to elastic#43663

* Add unit test for okayToDeleteSnapshots

* Fix bug where SLM retention task would be scheduled on every node

* Enhance test logging

* Ignore if snapshot is already deleted

* Missing import

* Fix SnapshotRetentionServiceTests

* Expose SLM policy stats in get SLM policy API (elastic#45989)

This also adds support for the SLM stats endpoint to the high level rest client.

Retrieving a policy now looks like:

```json
{
  "daily-snapshots" : {
    "version": 1,
    "modified_date": "2019-04-23T01:30:00.000Z",
    "modified_date_millis": 1556048137314,
    "policy" : {
      "schedule": "0 30 1 * * ?",
      "name": "<daily-snap-{now/d}>",
      "repository": "my_repository",
      "config": {
        "indices": ["data-*", "important"],
        "ignore_unavailable": false,
        "include_global_state": false
      },
      "retention": {}
    },
    "stats": {
      "snapshots_taken": 0,
      "snapshots_failed": 0,
      "snapshots_deleted": 0,
      "snapshot_deletion_failures": 0
    },
    "next_execution": "2019-04-24T01:30:00.000Z",
    "next_execution_millis": 1556048160000
  }
}

* Rewrite SnapshotLifecycleIT as as ESIntegTestCase

This commit splits `SnapshotLifecycleIT` into two different tests.
`SnapshotLifecycleRestIT` which includes the tests that do not require
slow repositories, and `SLMSnapshotBlockingIntegTests` which is now an
integration test using `MockRepository` to simulate a snapshot being in
progress.
