This commit adds a note to the Windows service docs regarding the thread
stack size setting for the Windows service installer. As the Apache
Commons procrun daemon requires that this setting be explicitly set, we
need a value to be set when the service is installed. The right place
for this setting is the jvm.options file. We do not want to ship with a
hard-coded value here because we do not want to override the default
setting on other platforms, and the right default depends on whether or
not the end-user is on a 32-bit versus a 64-bit Windows system.
Relates #18324
This commit adds a new configuration file jvm.options to centralize and
simplify management of JVM options. This separates the configuration of
the JVM from the packaging scripts (bin/elasticsearch*, bin/service.bat,
and init.d/elasticsearch) simplifying end-user operational management of
custom JVM options.
