Only store single reference to mapping for indices that share the same mappings in the cluster state

[cwperks]

Description

This PR contains an optimization for the cluster state that would particularly be beneficial in cases of index rollover where many indices in the cluster share the same mappings.

This is another (and probably the largest) optimization along with 2 other related PRs:

• Add circuit breaking logic for GET _mappings to estimate the size of the mappings before executing a request #19857
• Prevent calling filterFields multiple times on indices with the same mappings in GET _mapping #19914

For this optimization, it works at the time that the new Metadata instance is built to try de-duplicating the mappings if multiple indices share the same mappings.

This seems like low hanging fruit to optimize cluster state heap utilization esp in clusters with many rolled over indices. Is there anything I'm missing with this?

MappingMetadata can only have a single type which is _doc. See https://stackoverflow.com/a/53688626 for more details.

Single mapping type is declared here: https://github.com/opensearch-project/OpenSearch/blob/main/server/src/main/java/org/opensearch/index/mapper/MapperService.java#L126
