Original commit: elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch@c2a5e60c12
This change removes the InternalClient and the InternalSecurityClient. These are replaced with
usage of the ThreadContext and a transient value, `action.origin`, to indicate which component the
request came from. The security code has been updated to look for this value and ensure the
request is executed as the proper user. This work comes from elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch#2808 where @s1monw suggested
that we do this.
While working on this, I came across index template registries and rather than updating them to use
the new method, I replaced the ML one with the template upgrade framework so that we could
remove this template registry. The watcher template registry is still needed as the template must be
updated for rolling upgrades to work (see elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch#2950).

The changes made for elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch#2369 showed that the ML security tests were seriously
weakened by the decision to grant many "minimal" privileges to all users
involved in the tests. A better solution is to override the auth header
such that a superuser runs setup actions and assertions that work by
querying raw documents in ways that an end user wouldn't. Then the ML
endpoints can be called with the privileges provided by the ML roles and
nothing else.

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 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.

* Changed ML action names to allow distinguishing of admin and read-only actions
using wildcards
* Added manage_ml and monitor_ml built-in privileges as subsets of the existing
manage and monitor privileges
* Added out-of-the-box machine_learning_admin and machine_learning_user roles
* Changed machine learning results endpoints to use a NodeClient rather than an
InternalClient when searching for results so that index/document level permissions
applied to ML results are respected
