Operations from a leader shard will be indexed into the engine with the
origin set to primary. The problem is here is that then we have primary
semantics in the engine such as assertions about sequence numbers being
unassigned, and we do not have correct semantics for out-of-order
delivery of operations (as we should on a following engine, whether or
not it is primary since the ordering is determined from the
leader). This commit handles this by always using the replica plan for
indexing into a following engine, whether or not the engine is for a
primary shard.

A following engine even for a primary shard needs to maintain order of
operations semantics as if it were behaving like a replica. That is,
rather than assuming that the order of operations presented to the
engine is the de facto order of operations as is the case for a leader
engine for a primary shard, a following engine must behave like all
replicas behave which is that they resolve order of operations based on
sequence numbers. This commit causes this to be the case for following
engines.

This test verifies that we have sufficient failover code so that
a newly elected master re-registers old schedules and fires them off.
All times are relative to the index creation date.
This commit is a first step towards a following engine
implementation. Future work will build on this by using this engine to
execute operations on a following engine from another engine (typically
a remote leader engine) that has already assigned sequence numbers to
such operations.

This commit sets an index setting for the size of a translog generation
and increases the number of documents indexed to increase the chance of
multiple generations being present when testing getting operations
between two sequence numbers.
This commit fixes an off-by-one error in the shard changes action test
for getting operations between two sequence numbers. The off-by-one
error arises because sequence numbers are indexed from zero, so if N
documents are indexed then the maximum sequence number starting from
zero would be N - 1.
* xdcr: Add an internal api to read translog operations between a sequence number range.
This api will be used later by the persistent task for the following index to pull data from the leader index.
The persistent task can fetch the global checkpoint from the shard stats for each primary shard of the leader index.
Based on the global checkpoint of the primary shards of the following index, the persistent task can send several
calls to the internal api added in this commit to replicate changes from follow index to leader index in a batched manner.
Feature consists of a shell of a persistant task which will later be used to inspect the index settings and apply curator like changes to the index (move from hot to warm, rollover, shrink etc.)
This commit utilizes the pluggable engine factory feature in core to
introduce a pluggable engine factory for XDCR. For now this is only a
skeleton implementation to proof out the pluggable engine factory
concept. Future work will implement a genuine following engine for XDCR.

This commit introduces the container class for CCR functionality. Future
work will expose more specific CCR functionality to the X-Pack plugin
through this class.
