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 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 adds a token based access mechanism that is a subset of the OAuth 2.0 protocol. The
token mechanism takes the same values as a OAuth 2 standard (defined in RFC 6749 and RFC 6750),
but differs in that we use XContent for the body instead of form encoded values. Additionally, this
PR provides a mechanism for expiration of a token; this can be used to implement logout
functionality that prevents the token from being used again.
The actual tokens are encrypted using AES-GCM, which also provides authentication. The key for
encryption is derived from a salt value and a passphrase that is stored on each node in the
secure settings store. By default, the tokens have an expiration time of 20 minutes and is
configurable up to a maximum of one hour.

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.
