Previously "certutil" would generate a zip file if there were multiple
certificates.
However, this means that if the user specified "-multiple" or "-in"
then the output format will vary based on whether they entered
multiple instance names (-multiple) or whether the input file
contained multiple instance records (-in).
It is better if the output format is predictable based on the command
line options, so this change forces zip output whenever any of the
following command line options are supplied:
-pem
-keep-ca-key
-multiple
-in

The handling of the "--pass" option has complex rules due to the
different requirements of different output formats, and the way
joptsimple handles specs with optional arguments.
A standard unix shell will parse
certutil --pass=""
as being identical to
certutil --pass=
and joptsimple treats that as being "no argument", i.e. the same as
certutil --pass
The only way to pass a blank password is
certutil --pass ""
(though this is shell dependent)

This creates a new "beats_system" user and role with the same
privileges as the existing "logstash_system" user/role.
The "beat_system" user is also added as a managed user within
the "setup-passwords" command.
Users who upgrade from an earlier version of Elasticsearch/X-Pack
will need to manually set a password for the beats_system user via
the change password API (or Kibana UI)
