Refactor indexer (#25174)

Refactor `modules/indexer` to make it more maintainable. And it can be easier to support more features. I'm trying to solve some of issue searching, this is a precursor to making functional changes. Current supported engines and the index versions: | engines | issues | code | | - | - | - | | db | Just a wrapper for database queries, doesn't need version | - | | bleve | The version of index is **2** | The version of index is **6** | | elasticsearch | The old index has no version, will be treated as version **0** in this PR | The version of index is **1** | | meilisearch | The old index has no version, will be treated as version **0** in this PR | - | ## Changes ### Split Splited it into mutiple packages ```text indexer ├── internal │ ├── bleve │ ├── db │ ├── elasticsearch │ └── meilisearch ├── code │ ├── bleve │ ├── elasticsearch │ └── internal └── issues ├── bleve ├── db ├── elasticsearch ├── internal └── meilisearch ``` - `indexer/interanal`: Internal shared package for indexer. - `indexer/interanal/[engine]`: Internal shared package for each engine (bleve/db/elasticsearch/meilisearch). - `indexer/code`: Implementations for code indexer. - `indexer/code/internal`: Internal shared package for code indexer. - `indexer/code/[engine]`: Implementation via each engine for code indexer. - `indexer/issues`: Implementations for issues indexer. ### Deduplication - Combine `Init/Ping/Close` for code indexer and issues indexer. - ~Combine `issues.indexerHolder` and `code.wrappedIndexer` to `internal.IndexHolder`.~ Remove it, use dummy indexer instead when the indexer is not ready. - Duplicate two copies of creating ES clients. - Duplicate two copies of `indexerID()`. ### Enhancement - [x] Support index version for elasticsearch issues indexer, the old index without version will be treated as version 0. - [x] Fix spell of `elastic_search/ElasticSearch`, it should be `Elasticsearch`. - [x] Improve versioning of ES index. We don't need `Aliases`: - Gitea does't need aliases for "Zero Downtime" because it never delete old indexes. - The old code of issues indexer uses the orignal name to create issue index, so it's tricky to convert it to an alias. - [x] Support index version for meilisearch issues indexer, the old index without version will be treated as version 0. - [x] Do "ping" only when `Ping` has been called, don't ping periodically and cache the status. - [x] Support the context parameter whenever possible. - [x] Fix outdated example config. - [x] Give up the requeue logic of issues indexer: When indexing fails, call Ping to check if it was caused by the engine being unavailable, and only requeue the task if the engine is unavailable. - It is fragile and tricky, could cause data losing (It did happen when I was doing some tests for this PR). And it works for ES only. - Just always requeue the failed task, if it caused by bad data, it's a bug of Gitea which should be fixed. --------- Co-authored-by: Giteabot <teabot@gitea.io>

 ## Indexer (`indexer`)

 - `ISSUE_INDEXER_TYPE`: **bleve**: Issue indexer type, currently supported: `bleve`, `db`, `elasticsearch` or `meilisearch`.
- `ISSUE_INDEXER_CONN_STR`: ****: Issue indexer connection string, available when ISSUE_INDEXER_TYPE is elasticsearch, or meilisearch. i.e. http://elastic:changeme@localhost:9200
- `ISSUE_INDEXER_NAME`: **gitea_issues**: Issue indexer name, available when ISSUE_INDEXER_TYPE is elasticsearch
+- `ISSUE_INDEXER_CONN_STR`: ****: Issue indexer connection string, available when ISSUE_INDEXER_TYPE is elasticsearch (e.g. http://elastic:password@localhost:9200) or meilisearch (e.g. http://:apikey@localhost:7700)
+- `ISSUE_INDEXER_NAME`: **gitea_issues**: Issue indexer name, available when ISSUE_INDEXER_TYPE is elasticsearch or meilisearch.
 - `ISSUE_INDEXER_PATH`: **indexers/issues.bleve**: Index file used for issue search; available when ISSUE_INDEXER_TYPE is bleve and elasticsearch. Relative paths will be made absolute against _`AppWorkPath`_.

 - `REPO_INDEXER_ENABLED`: **false**: Enables code search (uses a lot of disk space, about 6 times more than the repository size).
 - `REPO_INDEXER_REPO_TYPES`: **sources,forks,mirrors,templates**: Repo indexer units. The items to index could be `sources`, `forks`, `mirrors`, `templates` or any combination of them separated by a comma. If empty then it defaults to `sources` only, as if you'd like to disable fully please see `REPO_INDEXER_ENABLED`.
 - `REPO_INDEXER_TYPE`: **bleve**: Code search engine type, could be `bleve` or `elasticsearch`.
 - `REPO_INDEXER_PATH`: **indexers/repos.bleve**: Index file used for code search.
- `REPO_INDEXER_CONN_STR`: ****: Code indexer connection string, available when `REPO_INDEXER_TYPE` is elasticsearch. i.e. http://elastic:changeme@localhost:9200
+- `REPO_INDEXER_CONN_STR`: ****: Code indexer connection string, available when `REPO_INDEXER_TYPE` is elasticsearch. i.e. http://elastic:password@localhost:9200
 - `REPO_INDEXER_NAME`: **gitea_codes**: Code indexer name, available when `REPO_INDEXER_TYPE` is elasticsearch

 - `REPO_INDEXER_INCLUDE`: **empty**: A comma separated list of glob patterns (see https://github.com/gobwas/glob) to **include** in the index. Use `**.txt` to match any files with .txt extension. An empty list means include all files.
