Remove the ability to delete mappings #8877

Description

@clintongormley

Currently, a user can delete a type entirely, which deletes the type, all documents of that type, and removes the associated fields. Unfortunately, if any documents of that type have already been indexed, then the fields are part of the index. Adding fields with the same name but a different data type will cause conflicts later on. (See #8530 (comment))

We should remove the ability to delete types/mappings.
