Martijn van Groningen 4393939f5e inner_hits: Nested parent field should be resolved based on the parent inner hit definition, instead of the nested parent field in the mapping.
The behaviour is better in the case someone has multiple levels of nested object fields defined in the mapping and like to define a single inner_hits definition that is two or more levels deep.

If someone wants inner hits on a nested field that is 2 levels deep the following would need to be defined:

```
{
  ...
  "inner_hits" : {
     "path" : {
        "level1" : {
            "inner_hits" : {
               "path" : {
                  "level2" : {
                     "query" : { .... }
                  }
               }
            }
        }
     }
  }
}
```

With this change the above can be defined as:

```
{
  ...
  "inner_hits" : {
     "path" : {
        "level1.level2" : {
            "query" : { .... }
        }
     }
  }
}
```
