Remove index level boosting #51703

Open mayya-sharipova opened 4 years ago

Currently there is no index level boosting, as boosting is only applied during query time. But we still allow to define boosting in mapping, which we should remove.

[x] Remove mentions to index time boosting in the docs.
[ ] Remove boost option in the index mapping.
error when boost option is supplied on 8.x indexes
issue a deprecation warning when boost option is supplied on 7.x indexes.
[ ] Upgrade path. update documentation that old indexes should be reindexed without index boost parameters, and queries should be updated accordingly.

There's no need to reindex, we could just remove the parameter automatically in 8.x (as part of the upgrade).

Other than that +1 for the plan!

What is the reason for the warning in version 7.x , does that mean elastic v 7.x still supports index level boosting,i recently created a index in 7.x and the index mapping was accepting boost parameters ,Please clarify ?
