Remove DEBUG-level default logging from actions #51459

In 2bb31fe (v0.6.0!) we added DEBUG-level logging to the default config of
action loggers "for easier debugging". This change to the default config lives
on to this day. It does not obviously make debugging any easier any more, but
it does result in a good deal of log noise sometimes. This commit removes this
special case from the default config.

Closes #51198

NB opened against 7.x since this is where we're documenting the change in the default behaviour; the same change will be made against master without the docs change.

Users of the RPM/Debian packages that have made modifications to their log4j configuration file won’t receive this change. It might be worth remarking that such users need to manually apply this change to their deployed configuration. Up to you.

Otherwise, LGTM.

Thanks Jason. I'm ok with leaving implicit the impact on RPM/Debian users you mentioned. I've tried to be careful to talk only about the default config everywhere; if you're not using the default config then your fate is in your own hands.

Today we log `failed to execute pipeline for a bulk request` at `ERROR` level
if an attempt to run an ingest pipeline fails. A failure here is commonly due
to an `EsRejectedExecutionException`. We also feed such failures back to the
client and record the rejection in the threadpool statistics.

In line with elastic#51459 there is no need to log failures within actions so noisily
and with such urgency. It is better to leave it up to the client to react
accordingly. Typically an `EsRejectedExecutionException` should result in the
client backing off and retrying, so a failure here is not normally fatal enough
to justify an `ERROR` log at all.

This commit reduces the log level for this message to `DEBUG`.

In elastic#51459 DEBUG-level logging was removed from the default log4j
configuration. However, our docker build has its own log4j configuration
which was missed in that change. This commit removes the same from the
docker log4j configuration.
