The SQL action supports several text outputs and used to default to an
output that looked like the SQL CLI. It is a lovely output format but
this changes output selection behavior to mimick Elasticsearch's
standard behavior: it'll now default to the same format as the request.
That means that if you want the pretty text format then you need to ask
for it. The way to do that is:
```
POST /_xpack/sql?format=text/plain
{
"query": "SELECT * FROM library ORDER BY page_count DESC LIMIT 5"
}
```

When running `gradle run` at the top level (at least with Gradle 4.4) it
attempts to run multiple instances of the server, causing the run to fail since
they can't both bind to 9200/9300.
This renames the tasks for the `qa` directories to be `runqa` and the task for
the `cli` directory to be `runcli`.

This shuffles all of SQL's QA tests into the `qa/sql` directory, moving
some shared resources into the new `qa:sql` project. It also rigs up
testing of the rest SQL interface in all the sql qa configurations:
without security, with security, and against multiple nodes.
I've had to make some modifications to how we handle the audit log
because it has gotten pretty slow. If these modifications turn out to
not be fast enough then I'll change the test to querying the log files
and drop the audit log index entirely but the index seems to be holding
out for now.
