[DOCS] Fix default value for closed indices (elastic#78924) (elastic#79051)
* [DOCS] Fix default value for closed indices elastic#57953 introduced changes that added ESS icons to many Elasticsearch settings. As part of those changes, the default value for `cluster.indices.close.enable` was indicated as `false`, when it should be `true`. This PR updates the default value to `true`. Closes elastic#78877 * Update description * Update note to remove outdated claims

IMPORTANT: Closed indices are a data loss risk because they are not included when you make cluster configuration changes, such as scaling to a different capacity, failover, and many other operations. Additionally, closed indices can lead to inaccurate disk space counts.
