What does this MR do and why?

Fix for gitlab:elastic:recreate_index rake task

Active indexing jobs could create the main gitlab-production alias and underlying index if data is added while this rake task is run. This is possible on very busy self managed instances. This fix checks the current setting and disabling indexing temporarily while the existing indexes are deleted and recreated.

Changelog: fixed EE: true
