Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Yes. A new index setting (index.merge.policy) is introduced to configure the index merge policy (tiered and log_byte_size) for individual index. Also, a new cluster setting (indices.time_series_index.default_index_merge_policy) is introduced to set the default merge policy for index containing @timestamp field. Both the settings defaults are currently set as tiered.
Both settings are static.
