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.

Changes the logging of LDAP authentication failures from "always" to "only if the user failed to be authenticated"
Previously there were cases (such has having 2 AD realms) where successful user authentication would still cause an INFO message to be written to the log for every request.
Now that message is suppressed, but a WARN message is added _if-and-only-if_ the user cannot be authenticated by any realm.
This is implemented via a new value stored in the ThreadContext that the AuthenticationService choses to log (or not log) depending on the result of the authenticate process.

Original commit: elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch@b81b363729
This commit is response to the renaming of the random ASCII helper
methods in ESTestCase. The name of this method was changed because these
methods only produce random strings generated from [a-zA-Z], not from
all ASCII characters.

Original commit: elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch@a6085964d3
The wait condition used for integ tests by default calls the cluster
health api with wait_for_nodes nd wait_for_status. However, xpack
overrides the wait condition to add auth, but most of these conditions
still looked at the root ES url, which means the tests are susceptible
to race conditions with the check and node startup. This change modifies
the url for the authenticated wait condtion to check the health api,
with the appropriate wait_for_nodes and wait_for_status.

This commit adds the ability for x-pack extensions to optionally
provide custom roles providers, which are used to resolve any roles
into role descriptors that are not found in the reserved or native
realms. This feature enables the ability to define and provide roles
from other sources, without having to pre-define such roles in the security
config files.
