This is required so the Logstash Centralized Configuration Management UI in Kibana may make the GET / request to Elasticsearch and retrieve the cluster UUID. It then uses this cluster UUID to make a call to a Kibana Monitoring API to retrieve a list of pipelines from Monitoring. In order for the Kibana Monitoring API request to succeed, the logged-in user needs to have the built-in monitoring_user role anyway, so we give this role the cluster:monitor/main privilege.

Original commit: elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch@e02ebcc9e6
It is common for users to wish to adjust the verification_mode in SSL
settings, usually with the intention of skipping hostname
verification. This has been supported for a long time, but the
relevant configuration setting was not clearly documented, which would
sometimes lead users to set `verification_mode` to `none`, and disable
more checks than they intended.
This commit adds clearer documentation regarding the options available
for `verification_mode` and actively discourages the use of `none`.

For the user cache, the crypt option rounds are actually the log2 of the number
of rounds. This commits updates the documentation to reflect this.
Original commit: elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch@d3cc2b7f29
We specify an alias for signing key, but when we just have
a single key in key store this is an additional setting which
is annoying. This PR addresses this issue by making it optional.
- Changes in SamlRealmSettings to make signing/encryption
key alias optional
- Checks if none of the keys are useful for given operation
signing or encryption throws an error.
- Checks for no of aliases in key-store, if more than one and alias
is not specified throws error.
- If an alias is not specified and there is just one alias in
keystore then use it as the credential.
- Unit Tests
Note: A side effect of this change the above-mentioned behavior is
it's also applicable for encryption keys currently, but it is going
to change when fixing elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch#3980 for supporting multiple encryption keys.

Original commit: elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch@2b5af1d8a8
Adds a SecureSetting option for the "bind_password" in LDAP/AD realms
and deprecates the non-secure version.
LDAP bind passwords should now be configured with the setting
`xpack.security.authc.realms.REALM_NAME.secure_bind_password`
in the elasticsearch keystore.

This creates a new "beats_system" user and role with the same
privileges as the existing "logstash_system" user/role.
The "beat_system" user is also added as a managed user within
the "setup-passwords" command.
Users who upgrade from an earlier version of Elasticsearch/X-Pack
will need to manually set a password for the beats_system user via
the change password API (or Kibana UI)

* Additional settings for SAML NameID policy
We should not be populating SPNameQualifier by default as it is
intended to be used to specify an alternate SP EntityID rather than
our own. Some IdPs (ADFS) fail when presented with this value.
This commit
- makes the SPNameQualifier a setting that defaults to blank
- adds a setting for "AllowCreate"
- documents the above

This change removes the XPackExtension mechanism in favor of
SecurityExtension that can be loaded via SPI and doesn't need
another (duplicate) plugin infrastructure
Original commit: elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch@f39e62a040
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.
