This commit adds detection of support for AES 256 bit ciphers and enables their use when the JVM
supports them. For OpenJDK, this is often the case without any changes but for the Oracle JVM, the
unlimited policy file needs to be installed. In order to simplify the work a user would need to do
we can detect this support and automatically enable the AES 256 bit versions of the ciphers we
already enable.

Original commit: elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch@0f430a1bea
Add an option to the ssl certificate generation tool (certgen) that generates PKCSelastic/x-pack-elasticsearch#12 (.p12) files in addition to the certificate (.crt) and key (.key) files.
A PKCSelastic/x-pack-elasticsearch#12 store is a container format for storing multiple crypto objects in a single file, which means we can put the cert and key into the same file.
These format is particularly useful for .NET environments, where .NET Core requires a single into file for PKI authentication.
Also adds documentation for all the command-line options in certgen.

Original commit: elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch@49ddb12a7e
This is related to elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch#1217. This PR removes the default password of
"changeme" from the reserved users.
This PR adds special behavior for authenticating the reserved users. No
ReservedRealm user can be authenticated until its password is set. The
one exception to this is the elastic user. The elastic user can be
authenticated with an empty password if the action is a rest request
originating from localhost. In this scenario where an elastic user is
authenticated with a default password, it will have metadata indicating
that it is in setup mode. An elastic user in setup mode is only
authorized to execute a change password request.
