They needed to be updated now that Painless is the default and
the non-sandboxed scripting languages are going away or gone.
I dropped the entire section about customizing the classloader
whitelists. In master this barely does anything (exposes more
things to expressions).
Site plugins used to be used for things like kibana and marvel, but
there is no longer a need since kibana (and marvel as a kibana plugin)
uses node.js. This change removes site plugins, as well as the flag for
jvm plugins. Now all plugins are jvm plugins.
* Add ability for plugins to declare additional permissions with a custom plugin-security.policy file and corresponding AccessController logic. See the plugin author's guide for more information.
* Add warning messages to users for extra plugin permissions in bin/plugin.
* When bin/plugin is run interactively (stdin is a controlling terminal and -b/--batch not supplied), require user confirmation.
* Improve unit test and IDE support for plugins with additional permissions by exposing plugin's metadata as a maven test resource.

Add documentation and pluginmanager support
commit 05dad86c51488ba43ccbd749f0164f3fbd3aee62

Decentralize plugin permissions (modulo docs and pluginmanager work)
The setting `plugin.types` is currently used to load plugins from the
classpath. This is necessary in tests, as well as the transport client.
This change removes the setting, and replaces it with the ability to
directly add plugins when building a transport client, as well as
infrastructure in the integration tests to specify which plugin classes
should be loaded on each node.
* Centralised plugin docs in docs/plugins/
* Moved integrations into same docs
* Moved community clients into the clients section of the docs
* Removed docs/community
