Analyze index disk usage API should be asynchronous #111837

Problem Description

When running the Analyze Disk Usage API, it may be rather slow on clusters with slow disks and data at a certain size. On one of our development cluster this API needs six minutes to return data.

I think this endpoint should have an async option, otherwise it cannot be run within Kibana, as it timeouts earlier.

Steps to Reproduce

Run the API on a HDD based system with a decent amount of data.
