Changing the default for deprecation log indexing to be true. This commit also overrides this defualt to tests where a deprecation data stream would intefere - because it uses index template, it would not be possible to delete with _index_template/*. The overrides should be removed when elastic#78850 is done. closes elastic#76292

Requests to delete
*or_allindex templates should exclude any templates for hidden data streams. Because of the restriction on deleting templates for data streams and the fact that there are now a number of automatically-created hidden data streams such as ILM history, a high percentage of requests to delete all templates will likely fail.
