With the change of requiring to configure account settings properly by
using affix settings, we forgot another special snowflake, namely the
configuration of mail properties, which can be arbitrary in the
configuration. Those properties are used when an email is sent.
This commit adds a few (but not all of those) options back and removes
the link in the documentation to refer to all of those settings.
Some settings are useless, as they only change the execution
expectations when a mail is sent, which the watch has control over.
The following settings are supported
* smtp.{host,port,user,password}
* smtp.auth
* smtp.starttls.{enable,required}
* smtp.{timeout,connection_timeout,write_timeout}
* smtp.{local_address,local_port}
* smtp.send_partial
* smtp.wait_on_quit

We specify an alias for signing key, but when we just have
a single key in key store this is an additional setting which
is annoying. This PR addresses this issue by making it optional.
- Changes in SamlRealmSettings to make signing/encryption
key alias optional
- Checks if none of the keys are useful for given operation
signing or encryption throws an error.
- Checks for no of aliases in key-store, if more than one and alias
is not specified throws error.
- If an alias is not specified and there is just one alias in
keystore then use it as the credential.
- Unit Tests
Note: A side effect of this change the above-mentioned behavior is
it's also applicable for encryption keys currently, but it is going
to change when fixing elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch#3980 for supporting multiple encryption keys.

Adds a SecureSetting option for the "bind_password" in LDAP/AD realms
and deprecates the non-secure version.
LDAP bind passwords should now be configured with the setting
`xpack.security.authc.realms.REALM_NAME.secure_bind_password`
in the elasticsearch keystore.

The documentation mentions that the xpack.watcher.encrypt_sensitive_data
setting needs to be set in the keystore. This is wrong however, it needs
to be set in the standard elasticsearch yaml file.

This adds a new setting, `xpack.monitoring.collection.enabled`, and
disables it by default (`false`).

Original commit: elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch@85f8f6d409
Following the changes of elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch#2975 the hard limit on the number of ML jobs
per node is no longer the only limiting factor. Additionally there is
now a limit based on the estimated memory usage of the jobs, and this is
expected to provide a more sensible limit that accounts for differing
resource requirements per job.
As a result, it makes sense to raise the default for the hard limit on
the number of jobs, on the assumption that the memory limit will prevent
the node becoming overloaded if an attempt is made to run many large jobs.
Increasing the hard limit will allow more small jobs to be run than was
previously the case by default.
Of course, this change to the default will have no effect for customers
who have already overridden the default in their config files.
Original commit: elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch@9fed1d1237
This change modifies the way ML jobs are assigned to nodes to primarily
base the decision on the estimated memory footprint of the jobs. The
memory footprint comes from the model size stats if the job has been
running long enough, otherwise from the model memory limit. In addition,
an allowance for the program code and stack is added.
If insufficient information is available to base the allocation decision on
memory requirements then the decision falls back to using simple job
counts per node.
