This commit adds the necessary changes to make SSL work on the transport layer by default. A large
portion of the SSL configuration/settings was re-worked with this change. Some notable highlights
include support for PEM cert/keys, reloadable SSL configuration, separate HTTP ssl configuration, and
separate LDAP configuration.
The following is a list of specific items addressed:
* `SSLSettings` renamed to `SSLConfiguration`
* `KeyConfig` and `TrustConfig` abstractions created. These hide the details of how `KeyManager[]` and `TrustManager[]` are loaded. These are also responsible for settings validation (ie keystore password is not null)
* Configuration fallback is changed. Previously any setting would fallback to the "global" value (`xpack.security.ssl.*`). Now a keystore path, key path, ca paths, or truststore path must be specified otherwise the configuration for that key/trust will fallback to the global configuration. In other words if you want to change part of a keystore or truststore in a profile you need to supply all the information. This could be considered breaking if a user relied on the old fallback
* JDK trusted certificates (`cacerts`) are trusted by default (breaking change). This can be disabled via a setting.
* We now monitor the SSL files for changes and enable dynamic reloading of the configuration. This will make it easier for users when they are getting set up with certificates so they do not need to restart every time. This can be disabled via a setting
* LDAP realms can now have their own SSL configurations
* HTTP can now have its own SSL configuration
* SSL is enabled by default on the transport layer only. Hostname verification is enabled as well. On startup if no global SSL settings are present and SSL is configured to be used, we auto generate one based on the default CA that is shipped. This process includes a best effort attempt to generate the subject alternative names.
* `xpack.security.ssl.hostname_verification` is deprecated in favor of `xpack.security.ssl.hostname_verification.enabled`
* added Bouncy Castle info to NOTICE
* consolidated NOTICE and LICENSE files

Original commit: elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch@7c359db90b
This commit removes duplicated code in the authentication service by combining
the authentication logic for rest and transport requests. As part of this we no longer
cache the authentication token since we put the user in the context and serialize the
user.
Additionally we now pass the thread context to the AuthenticationFailureHandler to
restore access to the headers and context.
Original commit: elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch@79e2375a13
This commit adds reserved or built-in user and role support to x-pack. The reserved roles
cannot be modified by users. The reserved users also cannot be modified with the exception
of changing the password for a user.
In order to change the password for a user, a new API has been added. This API only supports
changing passwords for native and reserved users.
To support allowing a user to change their own password, a default role has been added to grant
access. This default role only grants access to user operations that pertain to the user that is
being authorized. In other words, the default role grants `joe` the ability to change their own password
but does not allow them to change the password of a different user.
Additionally, the authenticate API was made a transport action and is granted by the default role.

Original commit: elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch@1a6689d90f
This commit migrates all of the `shield.` settings to `xpack.security.` and makes changes to
use the new Settings infrastructure in core.
As a cleanup, this commit also renames Shield to Security since this class is only in master
and will not affect 2.x.

Original commit: elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch@a5a9798b1b
This commit is the forward port of renaming the type for esusers to file. There is no
backwards compatibility maintained here. Additionally, a few other renames and
cleanups have been made:
* `esusers` commands is now `users`
* org.elasticsearch.shield.authc.esusers -> org.elasticsearch.shield.authc.file
* Validation.ESUsers -> Validation.Users
* ESUsersTool -> UsersTool
* ESUsersToolTests -> UsersToolTests
* ESNativeUsersStore -> NativeUsersStore
* ESNativeRolesStore -> NativeRolesStore.
* org.elasticsearch.shield.authz.esnative collapsed to org.elasticsearch.shield.authz.store
* ESNativeTests -> NativeRealmIntegTests
Closeselastic/elasticsearch#1793
Original commit: elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch@d2a0c136f3
* Add XPackExtension: an api class (like Plugin in core) for what a x-pack extension can do.
* Add XPackExtensionCli: a cli tool for adding, removing and listing extensions for x-pack.
* Add XPackExtensionService: loading of jars from pluginsdir/x-pack/extensions, into child classloader.
* Add bin/x-pack/extension script, similar to plugin cli, which installs an extension into pluginsdir/x-pack/extensions.
* Add XPack extension integration test.

This commit modifies using system properties to configure an integration
test cluster and instead use settings in the generated Elasticsearch
config file.
Original commit: elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch@65211b93d0
- Started to move configuration under the `xpack` name
- Cleaned up `ShieldPlugin`
- renamed `ShieldClient` to `SecurityClient`
- Introduced `XPackClient` that wraps security and watcher clients
Original commit: elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch@f05be0c180
In elastic/elasticsearch#1442 checkstyle checks were added, but also some files were freed from this.
If we have support for checkstyle, we should check this for all files and not allow
exceptions. This commit removes the file list to ignore any files and fixes all the
java files.
Original commit: elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch@99e6cbc5be
This change migrates all of the xpack code to use the new ThreadContext when
dealing with headers and context data. For the most part this is a simple
cutover, but there are some things that required special casing. The internal
actions that executed by a user's requests need to forcefully drop the context
and set the system user. The workaround for this will be improved in a followup.
Additionally, the RequestContext still lives on due to the OptOutQueryCache,
which requires some core changes to fix this issue.
Original commit: elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch@87d2966d93
This commit fixes the integration tests and qa test after the reorganization to be
packaged as a single plugin.
