Hello!

In [#75433](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/pull/75433) you added a shard count structure to the Node Stats API. That results in a new JSON key named `shards`. However, if you run the Node Stats API with `level=shards`, you already have a JSON key named `shards`.

```auto
$ curl -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -XGET 'http://localhost:9200/_nodes/stats?level=shards&human=true&pretty=true'

```

yields

```json
...
      "indices" : {
        "docs" : {
          "count" : 48,
          "deleted" : 0
        },
        "shards" : { // <--
          "total_count" : 2
        },
...
        "shards" : { // <--
          ".tasks" : [
            {
              "0" : {
                "routing" : {
                  "state" : "STARTED",
                  "primary" : true,
                  "node" : "f8Z10TwPSKqTNsnnJiFRtg",
                  "relocating_node" : null
                },
                "docs" : {
                  "count" : 5,
                  "deleted" : 0
                },
          "memory_size_in_bytes" : 0,
          "evictions" : 0
        },
...

```

Best,  
Oliver

Seems like a bug, would you report it on Github rather than here?
