This adds an API for simulating template composition with or without an index template.
It looks like:
```
POST /_index_template/_simulate/my-template
```
To simulate a template named `my-template` that already exists, or, to simulate a template that does
not already exist:
```
POST /_index_template/_simulate
{
"index_patterns": ["my-index"]
"composed_of": ["ct1", "ct2"],
}
```
This is related to elastic#55686, which adds an API to simulate composition based on an index name (hence
the `_simulate_index` vs `_simulate`).
This commit also adds reference documentation for both simulation APIs.

We currently have an
/_index_template/_simulate_index/{index}API that allows simulating (with our without a body) the resolved body for a given index. We should add a similar API for simulating only a template without an index, something like:Where the
template-idis optional, and if not specified, then the body must be present with a valid template definition.Relates to #56295
