Use m_m_nodes from Zen1 master for Zen2 bootstrap #37701

Conversation

Today we support a smooth rolling upgrade from Zen1 to Zen2 by automatically
bootstrapping the cluster once all the Zen1 nodes have left, as long as the
minimum_master_nodes count is satisfied. However this means that Zen2 nodes
also require the minimum_master_nodes setting for this one specific and
transient situation.

Since nodes only perform this automatic bootstrapping if they previously
belonged to a Zen1 cluster, they can keep track of the minimum_master_nodes
setting from the previous master instead of requiring it to be set on the Zen2
node.


NB: The first commit on this branch, c69f13c, adds the minimumMasterNodesOnPublishingMaster field to the cluster state and is intended to be backported to 6.x. I'm starting with a single PR for the whole thing for initial discussion, then I will open a separate PR just for the backportable bits and merge & backport it first.

To safely support rolling upgrades from 6.x to 7.x we need the 7.x nodes to
have access to the `minimum_master_nodes` setting, but this setting is
otherwise unnecessary in 7.x and we would like to remove it.  Since a rolling
upgrade from 6.x to 7.x involves the 7.x nodes joining a 6.x master, we can
avoid the need for setting `minimum_master_nodes` on the 7.x nodes by copying
the value set on the 6.x master.

This change exposes the master's node-level value for `minimum_master_nodes`
via a field in the cluster state.

This completes the BWC serialisation changes required for a 6.7 master to
inform other nodes of the node-level value of the `minimum_master_nodes`
setting.
