regression: Multifield mapping failing on 1.0.0RC1

[nahap]

When creating A Multi_field mapping on 1.0.0.RC1, the mapping returned is "string", instead of "multi_field". When using 0.90.10, the same curl request work correctly, returning "multi_field" as mapping:

curl -XDELETE http://localhost:9200/test_index/product/_mapping
curl -XDELETE http://localhost:9200/test_index

curl -XPUT http://localhost:9200/test_index
curl -XPUT http://localhost:9200/test_index/product/_mapping -d '
{
    "product": {
        "properties": {
            "mf_test" : {
                "type" : "multi_field",
                "fields" : {
                    "name" : {"type" : "string", "index" : "analyzed"},
                    "untouched" : {"type" : "string", "index" : "not_analyzed"}
                }
            }
        }
    }
}'
curl -XGET http://localhost:9200/test_index/product/_mapping

 curl -XPUT 'http://localhost:9200/test_index/product/1' -d '
 {
    "id": 1,
    "mf_test" : "anything"
 }'

curl -XGET http://localhost:9200/test_index/product/_mapping


{
    "test_index": {
        "mappings": {
            "product": {
                "properties": {
                    "mf_test": {
                        "type": "string",
                        "index": "no",
                        "fields": {
                            "name": {
                                "type": "string"
                            },
                            "untouched": {
                                "type": "string",
                                "index": "not_analyzed",
                                "norms": {
                                    "enabled": false
                                },
                                "index_options": "docs"
                            }
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

as you see in the result of the get mapping request the type of "mf_test" is "string" instead of multifield.

Hi

I think it's documented here: http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/master/_multi_fields.html

Feel free to reopen if needed.
