Lee Hinman 2c289fb538 Add the ability to retrieve fields from field data
Adds a new FetchSubPhase, FieldDataFieldsFetchSubPhase, which loads the
field data cache for a field and returns an array of values for the
field.

Also removes `doc['<field>']` and `_source.<field>` workaround no longer
needed in field name resolving.

Closes #4492

=== Field Data Fields
Allows to return the field data representiation of a field for each hit, for
example:
[source,js]
--------------------------------------------------
{
"query" : {
...
},
"fielddata_fields" : ["test1", "test2"]
}
--------------------------------------------------
Field data fields can work on fields that are not stored.
It's important to understand that using the `fielddata_fields` parameter will
cause the terms for that field to be loaded to memory (cached), which will
result in more memory consumption.
