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.

Original commit: elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch@e9cd117ca1
This commit fixes the merging of field level security rules from multiple roles. Prior to 5.2, the
merging was treated as the merging of languages whereas after 5.2, this incorrectly became a merge
of all rules meaning a single wildcard could cause denials to be ignored.

The wait condition used for integ tests by default calls the cluster
health api with wait_for_nodes nd wait_for_status. However, xpack
overrides the wait condition to add auth, but most of these conditions
still looked at the root ES url, which means the tests are susceptible
to race conditions with the check and node startup. This change modifies
the url for the authenticated wait condtion to check the health api,
with the appropriate wait_for_nodes and wait_for_status.

standalone-rest-test doesn't configure unit tests and for these
integTest only projects that is what we want.
Original commit: elastic/x-pack-elasticsearch@f576dfdfbb
It used to be that RestTestPlugin "came with" StandaloneTestBasePlugin
but we'd like to use it with BuildPlugin for the high level rest client.
Also fix some license headers.

This PR changes how we use roles and how we look at the roles of a user. Previously we looked up each role individually, parsed each into their own `Role` object, and had a wrapper that essentially served as an iterator over the roles. The same pattern was also followed for the permissions that composed a role (ClusterPermission, IndicesPermission, and RunAsPermission). This resulted in a lot of code that was hard to follow and could be inefficient.
Now, we look up the roles for a user in bulk and only get the RoleDescriptor for each role. Once all role descriptors have been retrieved, we build a single Role that represents the user's permissions and we also cache this combination for better performance as authorization can happen many times for a single top level request as we authorize the top level request and any sub requests, which could be a large number in the case of shard requests.
This change also enabled a large cleanup of our permission and privilege classes, which should reduce the footprint of what needs to be followed. Some of the notable changes are:
* Consolidation of GeneralPrivilege and AbstractAutomatonPrivilege into the Privilege class
* The DefaultRole class has been removed and the permissions it provided were moved into the AuthorizationService
* The GlobalPermission class was removed as there is a single role that represents a user's permissions
* The Global inner classes for the various permissions were removed
* The Core inner class was removed and ClusterPermission, IndexPermission, RunAsPermission became final classes instead of interfaces
* The Permission interface has been removed. The isEmpty() method defined by this interface is not needed as we can simply evaluate the permission to get the same effect
* The ClusterPermission#check method only takes the action name again
* The AutomatonPredicate class was removed and replaced by Automatons#predicate
* IndicesAccessControl objects no longer need to be merged when evaluating permissions
* MergedFieldPermissions has been removed
* The Name class that was used to hold an array of strings has been removed and replaced with the use of a Set
* Privilege resolution is more efficient by only combining automata once
Other items:
* NativeRolesStore no longer does caching, so the RoleAndVersion class could be removed
* FileRolesStore doesn't need to be an AbstractLifecycleComponent

* Build: Convert xplugins to use new extra projects setup
This change makes the gradle initialization for xplugins look in the
correct location for elasticsearch, which is now as a sibling of an
elasticsearch-extra directory, with x-plugins as a child of the extra
directory.
The elasticsearch side of this change is
elastic/elasticsearchelastic/elasticsearch#21773. This change will enable renaming x-plugins
to x-pack, see elastic/elasticsearch#3643.

This commit improves the output of the migrate tool in cases when there are errors parsing entries
in the roles or users files. This is done through the use of a logger that delegates its output to
the terminal.
Additionally, the `-c` option has been removed. This option was used to set the configuration directory
but this should be handled one way only and that is through the use of the `-Epath.conf` setting.
