Description

The environment variable solr.data.home is set in bin/solr (Unix) via --data-home and in bin/solr.cmd (Windows) via --solr-data. This is an inconsistency and should be resolved by deprecating either option and go with only the extended name to avoid conflicts with single-letter name t (currently used for type).

For this reason, the following changes are proposed:

• deprecate (9.x) and remove (10.0) the option --solr-data/-t by replacing it with --data-home
• deprecate (9.x) and remove (10.0) the option name -t that is used for --data-home
