All three template types (legacy templates, composable index templates and component templates) are stored in cluster state metadata (in fields "templates", "index_template" and "component_template"). This cluster state is readable (via GET /_cluster/state) for users who have the monitor privilege at the cluster level. However, calling the explicit read endpoints for these templates required the manage_index_templates privilege. This change grants access to the template specific retrieval APIs for all users (or API Keys) with the cluster monitor privilge so that they can make use of these fit-for-purpose APIs instead of parsing data directly from cluster metadata Relates: elastic/beats#29554, elastic#78832 Backport of: elastic#82046
