Backports the following commits to 8.0:

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 privilege so
that they can make use of these fit-for-purpose APIs instead of parsing
data directly from cluster metadata Relates:
