This commit changes how RestHandlers are registered with the
RestController so that a RestHandler no longer needs to register itself
with the RestController. Instead the RestHandler interface has new
methods which when called provide information about the routes
(method and path combinations) that are handled by the handler
including any deprecated and/or replaced combinations.
This change also makes the publication of RestHandlers safe since they
no longer publish a reference to themselves within their constructors.

* Update the REST API specification
This patch updates the REST API spefication in JSON files to better encode deprecated entities,
to improve specification of URL paths, and to open up the schema for future extensions.
Notably, it changes the `paths` from a list of strings to a list of objects, where each
particular object encodes all the information for this particular path: the `parts` and the `methods`.
Among the benefits of this approach is eg. encoding the difference between using the `PUT` and `POST`
methods in the Index API, to either use a specific document ID, or let Elasticsearch generate one.
Also `documentation` becomes an object that supports an `url` and also a `description` which is a
new field.
* Adapt YAML runner to new REST API specification format
The logic for choosing the path to use when running tests has been
simplified, as a consequence of the path parts being listed under each
path in the spec. The special case for create and index has been removed.
Also the parsing code has been hardened so that errors are thrown earlier
when the structure of the spec differs from what expected, and their
error messages should be more helpful.
* introduce state to the REST API specification
* change state over to stability
* CCR is no GA updated to stable
* SQL is now GA so marked as stable
* Introduce `internal` as state for API's, marks stable in terms of lifetime but unstable in terms of guarantees on its output format since it exposes internal representations
* make setting a wrong stability value, or not setting it at all an error that causes the YAML test suite to fail
* update spec files to be explicit about their stability state
* Document the fact that stability needs to be defined
Otherwise the YAML test runner will fail (with a nice exception message)
* address check style violations
* update rest spec unit tests to include stability
* found one more test spec file not declaring stability, made sure stability appears after documentation everywhere
* cluster.state is stable, mark response in some way to denote its a key value format that can be changed during minors
* mark data frame API's as beta
* remove internal and private as states for an API
* removed the wrong enum values in the Stability Enum in the previous commit

Many fixtures have similar code for writing the pid & ports files or
for handling HTTP requests. This commit adds an AbstractHttpFixture
class in the test framework that can be extended for specific testing purposes.
This pull request replaces the jvm-example plugin (from the jvm/site plugins era) by two new plugins: a custom-settings that shows how to register and use custom settings (including secured settings) in a plugin, and rest-handler plugin that shows how to register a rest handler.
The two plugins now reside in the plugins/examples project. They can serve as sample plugins for users, a special attention has been put on documentation. The packaging tests have been adapted to use the custom-settings plugin.
