Es_bulk codec plugin

This codec will decode the Elasticsearch bulk format into individual events, plus metadata into the @metadata field.

Encoding is not supported at this time as the Elasticsearch output submits Logstash events in bulk format.

The input-http plugin has two configuration options for codecs: codec and additional_codecs.

Values in additional_codecs are prioritized over those specified in the codec option. That is, the default codec is applied only if no codec for the request’s content-type is found in the additional_codecs setting.
