Backport 44bbc73 from #2062.

* feat: add transparent gRPC transport as separate java-client-grpc module

Adds a transparent gRPC transport layer that routes bulk operations
over gRPC for improved performance while falling back to REST for
all other operations. Isolated in a separate java-client-grpc module
to prevent classpath conflicts.

Includes:
- GrpcTransport + HybridTransport (automatic routing and fallback)
- Translation layer (BulkRequest/Response <-> protobuf conversion)
- TLS support (trust cert, trust store, mTLS, insecure, hostname override)
- Basic auth, AWS SigV4, and JWT authentication interceptors
- Channel health monitoring via gRPC connectivity state machine
- Integration tests (framework-compliant, version-gated to 3.5.0+)
- Sample code and CI configuration

* Remove unused toHttpStatus method and fix test package for package-private classes

- Removed GrpcStatusConverter.toHttpStatus() which was unused anywhere
  in the codebase (per maintainer feedback)
- Moved TranslationTest to the translation package so it can access
  package-private FieldMappingUtil and GrpcStatusConverter.convert()

* refactor: split AWS SigV4 into AwsGrpcTransport per maintainer feedback

Follows the same pattern as ApacheHttpClient5Transport (general) vs
AwsSdk2Transport (AWS-specific) in the existing codebase.

Changes:
- Created AwsGrpcTransport: extends GrpcTransport, adds SigV4 signing
  - AwsGrpcTransport.awsBuilder(host, port).sigV4(...).tls(...).build()
  - Requires sigV4Config and TLS
  - Overrides preProcessBulk() for payload hash computation
- Removed SigV4 from GrpcTransport:
  - Removed .sigV4() builder method
  - Removed sigV4Interceptor field
  - Added protected preProcessBulk() hook for subclasses
- GrpcTransport is now purely general-purpose (basic auth, JWT, TLS)
- Updated tests to use AwsGrpcTransport for SigV4 tests

* refactor: remove silent REST fallback from HybridTransport

Per maintainer feedback: if the intent is to use gRPC for a supported
endpoint, errors should propagate to the user rather than silently
falling back to REST.

Changes:
- HybridTransport no longer catches gRPC errors and retries via REST
- Removed fallbackOnError constructor parameter and field
- Routing behavior preserved: unsupported endpoints → REST directly
- gRPC-supported endpoints: errors propagate to caller
- Simplified performRequest/performRequestAsync (no try/catch)
- Updated tests: testGrpcErrorPropagatesForSupportedEndpoint

Behavior:
  client.bulk(req)   → gRPC (errors propagate if gRPC fails)
  client.search(req) → REST (not supported by gRPC, routed directly)

* docs: update comments to reflect routing instead of fallback

Stale references to 'automatic REST fallback' replaced with accurate
'REST routing for unsupported endpoints' language throughout.

- GrpcTransport: updated javadoc and error message
- GrpcDemo: rewrote Demo 3 to show REST routing (not fallback on error)
- GrpcAwsSigV4: updated to use AwsGrpcTransport.awsBuilder()
- GrpcBulkIT: renamed testRestFallback → testRestRouting

* fix: make integration test base classes self-contained

Per maintainer feedback: OpenSearchJavaClientTestCase and
TestcontainersThreadFilter are internal test classes not exposed for
external module use.

Changes:
- AbstractGrpcIT: now extends nothing, uses standard JUnit 4 + Assume
  - Removed dependency on OpenSearchJavaClientTestCase
  - Removed @ThreadLeakFilters(TestcontainersThreadFilter)
  - Uses Assume.assumeTrue() with manual version parsing
  - Reads cluster config from system properties directly
- GrpcTransportSupport: converted from interface (extending
  OpenSearchTransportSupport) to utility class
- GrpcBulkIT: no longer implements GrpcTransportSupport interface

* fix: lower java-client-grpc baseline from JDK 11 to JDK 8

Per maintainer feedback: opensearch-java baseline is JDK 8 and gRPC-Java
supports Java 8. No technical reason to require JDK 11.

Changes:
- build.gradle.kts: targetCompatibility/sourceCompatibility → 1.8
- GrpcSigV4Test: replaced 'var' (Java 10+) with explicit types

Signed-off-by: Dayana Jean <jeadayao@amazon.com>

* fix: remove explicit jackson test deps (transitive via java-client)

Per maintainer feedback: opensearch-java has a hard dependency on
Jackson 3.x, so it comes transitively. No need to declare it again.

* fix: wire up integration tests with java21 source set

Per maintainer feedback: integration tests were not being compiled or
run. Added the standard java21 source set configuration used by
java-client to java-client-grpc.

Changes:
- Added unitTest/integrationTest task definitions
- Added java21 source set (src/test/java11) gated on JDK 21+
- Added test framework, testcontainers, opensearch-testcontainers deps
- Added static import for JUnit Assert in GrpcBulkIT
- Integration tests now compile and will run with:
  ./gradlew :java-client-grpc:integrationTest -Dtests.opensearch.version=3.5.0

* ci: add OpenSearch 3.5.0 to integration test matrix

Adds the first gRPC-capable version to the test matrix so the gRPC
integration tests run in CI. Includes both Java 21 and Java 25.

* fix: replace wildcard import with explicit imports (spotless)

Spotless rejects wildcard imports. Replaced 'import static org.junit.Assert.*'
with explicit imports for assertEquals, assertFalse, assertNotNull, assertTrue.

Signed-off-by: Dayana Jean <jeadayao@amazon.com>

* fix: remove java21 classes from unitTest task

The java21 source set only contains integration tests (integTest package).
Adding it to unitTest causes 'No tests found' failure since the filter
excludes integTest classes. Only integrationTest needs the java21 classes.

* fix: spotless formatting for samples (license header, import order)

- GrpcDemo.java: replaced custom header with standard Apache-2.0 license
- GrpcAwsSigV4.java: fixed import ordering (AwsGrpcTransport alphabetical)
- Removed unused imports

* fix: skip gRPC integration tests when port is unreachable

assumeGrpcSupported() now verifies both:
1. Server version is 3.5.0+ (via REST info endpoint)
2. gRPC port is actually reachable (TCP socket check)

This prevents test failures when running integrationTest against
OpenSearch versions that don't have gRPC enabled or when the gRPC
port isn't exposed by testcontainers.

Signed-off-by: Dayana Jean <jeadayao@amazon.com>

* fix: only enable gRPC in testcontainer for OpenSearch 3.5.0+

GrpcTestContainerRule now checks the tests.opensearch.version property
before adding gRPC configuration. Older versions (1.x, 2.x) don't
support aux.transport.types and would fail to start.

On pre-3.5.0 versions:
- Container starts without gRPC config (REST only)
- gRPC port not exposed
- Tests skip via assumeGrpcSupported() (version check + port check)

Signed-off-by: Dayana Jean <jeadayao@amazon.com>

* ci: exclude grpc integration tests until OpenSearch 3.5.0 is released

OpenSearch 3.5.0 Docker image is not yet published, so the gRPC
integration tests cannot run in CI. Changes:

- Exclude :java-client-grpc:integrationTest from the main CI run
  (all matrix versions are pre-3.5.0)
- Comment out 3.5.0 entries in test matrix (uncomment when released)

The gRPC integration tests can still be run locally against a
container started manually or once 3.5.0 is published.

* fix: graceful skip on container failure + re-enable 3.5.0 in CI

OpenSearch 3.5.0 Docker image is published. Re-enabled in CI matrix.

Changes:
- GrpcTestContainerRule.before(): catches ContainerLaunchException and
  calls Assume.assumeTrue(false) to skip tests gracefully instead of
  failing the build
- Added 5-minute startup timeout for CI environments
- Removed duplicate disk watermark env var
- Re-enabled 3.5.0 in test-integration.yml matrix
- Removed -x :java-client-grpc:integrationTest exclusion

On pre-3.5.0 versions: container starts without gRPC, tests skip via
assumeGrpcSupported(). On 3.5.0+: if container fails for any reason,
tests skip instead of failing the build.

* fix: remove grpcStatusToHttpStatus from FieldMappingUtil

Per maintainer feedback: method was only used in tests, not in
production code. Removed the method and its 7 associated tests.

Signed-off-by: Dayana Jean <jeadayao@amazon.com>

* fix: skip gRPC tests early with assumeTrue for unsupported versions

Per maintainer feedback: use assumeTrue in the class rule to skip
tests immediately for older versions, rather than conditionally
configuring the container.

Changes:
- GrpcTestContainerRule.before(): assumeTrue("OpenSearch should
  support gRPC", supportsGrpc(version)) skips for pre-3.5.0
- createContainer(): always configures gRPC (only reached for 3.5.0+)
- Removed conditional gRPC config logic

* fix: make GrpcChannelFactory methods package-private

Signed-off-by: Dayana Jean <jeadayao@amazon.com>

* fix: apply maintainer suggestions on visibility and naming

1. BasicAuthInterceptor: constructor now package-private
2. GrpcChannelFactory: class now package-private (final class, no public)
3. GrpcTestContainerRule renamed to OpenSearchGrpcTestContainerRule
4. Updated references in AbstractGrpcIT
