This commit moves the source file in x-pack-core to a org.elasticsearch.xpack.core package. This is to prevent issues where we have compile-time success reaching through packages that will cross module boundaries at runtime (due to being in different classloaders). By moving these to a separate package, we have compile-time safety. Follow-ups can consider build time checking that only this package is defined in x-pack-core, or sealing x-pack-core until modules arrive for us.

This change makes the IndexLifecycleManager check for both index existence and up to date mappings
on the index prior to executing the provided runnable. Doing this provides a mechanism to make
non-breaking mapping updates to the security index in minor versions.

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.

This commit removes the SecuredString class that was previously used throughout the security code
and replaces it with the SecureString class from core that was added as part of the new secure
settings infrastructure.

When we encounter a composite request, we authorize at first without looking at the indices, to see whether the action can be executed at all. We then rely on the action to delegate to an inner action per sub-request, which will be authorized based on the indices it refers to. The first step works great for the simulate mode of search template, as it doesn't involve any index. The second step will make sure that when search template involves a search, it will be authorized as a normal search request would, based on the indices it reads from.
Note that the wildcard expansion happens now on the search side, it doesn't have to happen when executing the first authorization step, hence SearchTemplateRequest doesn't have to implement IndicesRequest, only SearchRequest has to (which it does already).
