ILM has been included in Elasticsearch, which allows us to manage the lifecycle
of an index, however, this lifecycle management does not currently include
periodic snapshots of the index.

In order to provide a full replacement for other cluster periodic management
tools out there (such as Curator), this commit adds snapshot management to
Elasticsearch.

An example of creating a snapshot lifecycle policy:

PUT /_slm/policy/snapshot-every-day
{
  // Run this every day at 2:30am
  "schedule": "0 30 2 * * ?",

  // What the snapshot should be named, supporting date-math
  "name": "<production-snap-{now/d}>",

  // Which snapshot repository to use for the snapshot
  "repository": "my-s3-repository",

  // "config" is a map of all the options that the regular snapshot API takes
  "config": {
    "indices": ["foo-*", "important"],
    "ignore_unavailable": true,
    "include_global_state": false
  }
}

Policies can be created/updated, retrieved, deleted, or executed. Executing a
snapshot policy immediately creates a snapshot based on the provided policy.

This commit adds `SnapshotLifecycleService` as a new service under the ilm
plugin. This service handles snapshot lifecycle policies by scheduling based on
the policies defined schedule.

This also includes the get, put, and delete APIs for these policies

Relates to #38461
(Note this is a PR against the `snapshot-lifecycle-management` feature branch)

This adds logic to `SnapshotLifecycleService` to handle updates and deletes for
snapshot policies. Policies with incremented versions have the old policy
cancelled and the new one scheduled. Deleted policies have their schedules
cancelled when they are no longer present in the cluster state metadata.

Relates to #38461
(This is a PR for the `snapshot-lifecycle-management` branch)

This commit fills in `SnapshotLifecycleTask` to actually perform the
snapshotting when the policy is triggered. Currently there is no handling of the
results (other than logging) as that will be added in subsequent work.

This also adds unit tests and an integration test that schedules a policy and
ensures that a snapshot is correctly taken.

Relates to #38461
Keeping a record of the results of the successes and failures will aid
troubleshooting of policies and make users more confident that their
snapshots are being taken as expected.

This is the first step toward writing history in a more permanent
fashion.
(This is a PR against the `snapshot-lifecycle-management` branch)

With the commit, we now validate the content of snapshot lifecycle policies when
the policy is being created or updated. This checks for the validity of the id,
name, schedule, and repository. Additionally, cluster state is checked to ensure
that the repository exists prior to the lifecycle being added to the cluster
state.

Part of #38461
(This pull request is for the `snapshot-lifecycle-management` branch)

This change allows the existing `/_ilm/stop` and `/_ilm/start` APIs to also
manage snapshot lifecycle scheduling. When ILM is stopped all scheduled jobs are
cancelled.

Adds serialization tests for SnapshotLifecyclePolicyItem.
…licy (#41035)

* Add human readable version of modified date for snapshot lifecycle policy

This small change changes it from:

```
...
"modified_date": 1554843903242,
...
```

To

```
...
"modified_date" : "2019-04-09T21:05:03.242Z",
"modified_date_millis" : 1554843903242,
...
```

Including the `"modified_date"` field when the `?human` field is used.

Relates to #38461

* Fix test
This commit adds the ability to perform a snapshot on demand for a policy. This
can be useful to take a snapshot immediately prior to performing some sort of
maintenance.

```json
PUT /_ilm/snapshot/<policy>/_execute
```

And it returns the response with the generated snapshot name:

```json
{
  "snapshot_name" : "production-snap-2019.04.09-rfyv3j9qreixkdbnfuw0ug"
}
```

Note that this does not allow waiting for the snapshot, and the snapshot could
still fail. It *does* record this information into the cluster state similar to
a regularly trigged SLM job.

Does this feature allow to specify snapshot duration?
I mean: after this duration, the snapshot is automatically deleted by slm policy.
Like ilm ˋmin_ageˋ option.

* Fix and enhance tests

* Figured out how to Cron

* Change SLM endpoint from /_ilm/* to /_slm/* (elastic#41320)

This commit changes the endpoint for snapshot lifecycle management from:

```
GET /_ilm/snapshot/<policy>
```

to:

```
GET /_slm/policy/<policy>

It mimics the ILM path only using `slm` instead of `ilm`.

* Add initial documentation for SLM

documentation.

* Add `manage_slm` and `read_slm` roles (elastic#41607)

* Add `manage_slm` and `read_slm` roles

This adds two more built in roles -

`manage_slm` which has permission to perform any of the SLM actions, as well as
stopping, starting, and retrieving the operation status of ILM.

`read_slm` which has permission to retrieve snapshot lifecycle policies as well
as retrieving the operation status of ILM.

Relates to elastic#38461

* Add execute to the test

* Fix ilm -> slm typo in test

* Record SLM history into an index (elastic#41707)

It is useful to have a record of the actions that Snapshot Lifecycle
Management takes, especially for the purposes of alerting when a
snapshot fails or has not been taken successfully for a certain amount of
time.

This adds the infrastructure to record SLM actions into an index that
can be queried at leisure, along with a lifecycle policy so that this
history does not grow without bound.

Additionally,
SLM automatically setting up an index + lifecycle policy leads to
`index_lifecycle` custom metadata in the cluster state, which some of
the ML tests don't know how to deal with due to setting up custom
`NamedXContentRegistry`s.  Watcher would cause the same problem, but it
is already disabled (for the same reason).

This commit adds a basic Getting Started Guide for SLM.

* Include SLM policy name in Snapshot metadata (elastic#43132)

Keep track of which SLM policy in the metadata field of the Snapshots
taken by SLM. This allows users to more easily understand where the
snapshot came from, and will enable future SLM features such as
retention policies.

Fixes an issue where an exception was created from one line and thrown in another.
