uboness 458daa2323 Add anonymous user support
When a request (rest/transport) that arrives to elasticsearch, and that has no authentication token associated with it, the request is then considered to be sent by an anonymous user. By default, we disallow anonymous requests and fail it by returning an authentication error.

Anonymous access can be enabled by configuring the `shield.authc.anonymous.roles` setting in `elasticsearch.yml` file. When set, an anonymous request will be associated with an `anonymous` user that holds the configured roles. From there on, authorization will continue as usual, and will try to authorize the request based on these roles.

Closes elastic/elasticsearch#376
