It is common for users to wish to adjust the verification_mode in SSL
settings, usually with the intention of skipping hostname
verification. This has been supported for a long time, but the
relevant configuration setting was not clearly documented, which would
sometimes lead users to set `verification_mode` to `none`, and disable
more checks than they intended.
This commit adds clearer documentation regarding the options available
for `verification_mode` and actively discourages the use of `none`.

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.

* Additional settings for SAML NameID policy
We should not be populating SPNameQualifier by default as it is
intended to be used to specify an alternate SP EntityID rather than
our own. Some IdPs (ADFS) fail when presented with this value.
This commit
- makes the SPNameQualifier a setting that defaults to blank
- adds a setting for "AllowCreate"
- documents the above
Original commit: elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch@093557e88f
Includes:
- docs for new realm type "saml"
- docs for new settings for SAML realms
- a guide for setting up SAML accross ES + Kibana
