This commit removes the SecuredString class that was previously used throughout the security code
and replaces it with the SecureString class from core that was added as part of the new secure
settings infrastructure.

The wait condition used for integ tests by default calls the cluster
health api with wait_for_nodes nd wait_for_status. However, xpack
overrides the wait condition to add auth, but most of these conditions
still looked at the root ES url, which means the tests are susceptible
to race conditions with the check and node startup. This change modifies
the url for the authenticated wait condtion to check the health api,
with the appropriate wait_for_nodes and wait_for_status.

standalone-rest-test doesn't configure unit tests and for these
integTest only projects that is what we want.
Original commit: elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch@f576dfdfbb
It used to be that RestTestPlugin "came with" StandaloneTestBasePlugin
but we'd like to use it with BuildPlugin for the high level rest client.
Also fix some license headers.

* Build: Convert xplugins to use new extra projects setup
This change makes the gradle initialization for xplugins look in the
correct location for elasticsearch, which is now as a sibling of an
elasticsearch-extra directory, with x-plugins as a child of the extra
directory.
The elasticsearch side of this change is
elastic/elasticsearchelastic/elasticsearch#21773. This change will enable renaming x-plugins
to x-pack, see elastic/elasticsearch#3643.

This is a followup from elastic/elasticsearchelastic/elasticsearch#21590 and needs to be
committed first or at the same time since netty_3 is removed

Reindex has grown support for simple whitelist patterns like
`localhost:*` and lost support for `myself`.

Eagerly authorizing CompositeIndicesRequests allowed the security plugin to fail fast up until now, but it makes it very hard to reason about each specific item in a multi items request. Either all items fail, or none do. We would rather want to adopt a similar behaviour to es core, where individual items fail without affecting other items that are part of the same request. We can rely on the fact that es core always authorizes both main action and every subaction too, and skip authorization for the main action. By subaction we mean either all sub search requests in msearch, as well as each shard level get in mget or shard level bulk request for bulk.
BulkRequestInterceptor was converted to intercept BulkShardRequests rather than BulkRequest as that is where bulk is authorized after this change.
Split IndicesAndAliasesResolverIntegrationTests into ReadActionsTests and WriteActionsTests as they require different set of permissions, lots of tests added.
Explicitly listing the composite actions makes sure that the actions that can bypass security are known, somebody adding a similar action must to add it to the list, so we know it doesn't happen by mistake. At this point the CompositeIndicesRequest can be used as a marker interface only (it is not really needed but can be used to verify that composite actions use a request that implements such interface).
Given that we don't authorize composite actions based on their indices anymore, but only their sub-requests which implement IndicesRequest, printing out the indices names in the audit log for requests like bulk and msearch is confusing. Removed support for that.
Authorize composite indices actions based on their name only, their indices will be authorized at the sub-request/shard level
Rather than simply granting bulk, mget, msearch etc. and relying on authorization at the sub-request/shard level, we check that the current user can at least execute the action. This justifies the grant line that gets written in the audit log, the action is potentially possible without looking at the indices. Each specific item will fail or succeed later and will yield its own specific audit log entry.
