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.

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.

This commit adds the ability for x-pack extensions to optionally
provide custom roles providers, which are used to resolve any roles
into role descriptors that are not found in the reserved or native
realms. This feature enables the ability to define and provide roles
from other sources, without having to pre-define such roles in the security
config files.
