I think we'll support the java agent to start and consider these other two later.

We need a logstash-agent, the java one provided by logstash is pretty cool performs quite well and have some many options (input/output/filters etc...) if we want something simpler without Java, then logstash-fowarder/beaver might be a good alternative

- The lumberjack protocol will no longer be the default for Logstash to communicate, due to hosted chef changes and golang runtime SSL changes (fixes #56, #14)
- Don't test the lumberjack protocol with the server install by default, removes lumberjack test suite in .kitchen.yml
- Default to tcp/udp for communication between logstash instances, add flag:
  `node['elkstack']['config']['agent_protocol'] = 'tcp_udp' # could also be lumberjack`
- Don't try to load lumberjack secrets by default for agent, don't fail if they aren't present (rename recipes/_secrets.rb -> recipes/_lumberjack_secrets.rb)
- elkstack::acl recipe changes to support tcp/udp communication
- add logstash configs for tcp/udp communication
- remove tests for lumberjack.key/crt now from default test suites
- remove extra data bags with lumberjack keypairs
