Add documentation for disabling _field_names meta-field #26779

@inqueue

Description

@inqueue

The _field_names meta-field can be disabled just like _all. For example:

PUT my_index
{
  "mappings": {
    "type_1": { 
      "properties": {...}
    },
    "type_2": { 
      "_field_names": {
        "enabled": false
      },
      "properties": {...}
    }
  }
}

Could documentation be provided for disabling _field_names along with the implications?
