Alexander Reelsen 811b7d7d78 Do not start packages on installation
The reason to not start packages on installation is to allow to configure
them before starting up (setting heap, cluster.name etc)

Also the documentation was updated in order to show, which statements need
to be executed.
In addition, these statements are also printed out when the package is
installed, depending on whether chkconfig, system or update-rc.d is used.

Closes #3722

Alexander Reelsen c30945a3d8 Start elasticsearch in the foreground by default
Instead of using the '-f' parameter to start elasticsearch in the
foreground, this is now the default modus.

In order to start elasticsearch in the background, the '-d' parameter
can be used.
