Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
As of now, OpenSearch does not support index creation block at cluster level. This feature will be required to support usecases like #4456 .
Describe the solution you'd like
We want a way to dynamically trigger a setting to apply index create block. This block should only prevent index creation, while write should continue to happen on the existing index.
Describe alternatives you've considered
We considered setting action.auto_create_index to false. But this will be controlled via elasticsearch.yml and won't dynamically apply index create block which is our use case here.
