Add setting for dead_letter_queue.max_bytes to allow a user
to set the maximum possible size of a dead letter queue on disk.

New boolean setting `config.support_escapes` which defaults to false
(the historical behavior). When set to true, the following escapes are
handled:
* backslash doublequote -> doublequote
* backslash quote -> quote
* backslash n -> newline (ascii 10)
* backslash r -> carriage return (ascii 13)
* backslash backslash -> backslash
* backslash t -> tab (ascii 9)
This will solve #1645.
Fixes#7516
This changes the Java-wide from the default of /dev/random. The reason
for this chnage is that /dev/random can block if there is insufficient
entropy available, and this blocking can cause Logstash to stall on
startup for many many minutes.
Fixes#6117.
This scenario (no entropy) seems especially prone to occur on virtual
machines.

On Windows, I was not sure if this would work, but the JDK source tree
says this:
On Windows systems, specifying the URLs "file:/dev/random" or
"file:/dev/urandom" will enable the native Microsoft CryptoAPI seeding
mechanism for SHA1PRNG.
So defaulting to /dev/urandom should still do the right thing on
Windows.
I also checked to see if other unix-likes had /dev/urandom, and
according to Wikipedia[1], Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, OSX, Solaris,
NetBSD, and others all have urandom.

Modules contain packaged Logstash configuration, Kibana dashboards and other meta files to ease the set up of the Elastic stack for certain use cases or data sources.
* Introduce a DeadLetterQueueFactory
DeadLetterQueueFactory is a static class that keeps
a static collection of DeadLetterQueueWriteManagers per
pipeline that has plugins requesting to use it.
* DeadLetterQueue was added as a first-class field in the execution context that input/filter/output plugins can leverage
In most cases, this will probably work out, but it will need some testing.
JRuby and `logstash.lib.sh` both check first for the presence of `JAVACMD`. If that isn't found, it tries `$JAVA_HOME/bin/java`. If that isn't found, it tries `java` in the system $PATH.
The previous behavior was to manually assign `JAVACMD=/usr/bin/java`. This will still work for most users. Special cases will still need manual configuration, but this will _probably_ work better for most cases in the long run.

This PR does a few modifications for our webserver:
- Add a PortRange setting type.
- allow the --http.port option to accept a port range or a single port, when a range is provided Logstash will incrementally try this list to find a free port for the webserver.
- Logstash will report in the log which port it is using. (INFO LEVEL)
- It refactors a few methods of the webserver.
- It adds test for the binding of the ports.
Notes:
Port range can be defined in the logstash.yml or pass via the command line like this.
`bin/logstash -e 'input { generator {}} output { null {}}' --log.level verbose --http.port 2000-2005`
Fixes#5774
This fix is for packages only (RPM/DEB)
This puts the requisite changes into /etc/logstash/logstash.yml so that starting logstash from the command-line, e.g. `/usr/share/logstash/bin/logstash --path.settings /etc/logstash` will read the pipeline from `/etc/logstash/conf.d` and log to `/var/log/logstash/logstash.log`.
