Adds documentation for the T-Digest field type, and makes a small change to the Exponential Histogram field type docs for consistency. While working on this, we decided the initial way of specifying the digest type for the t-digest field was overly complex, and moved to a simpler set of choices. That code change is also included in this mostly docs update. --------- Co-authored-by: Liam Thompson <[email protected]> Co-authored-by: elasticsearchmachine <[email protected]> Conflicts: docs/reference/elasticsearch/mapping-reference/exponential-histogram.md docs/reference/elasticsearch/toc.yml docs/reference/query-languages/esql/limitations.md
