   ### Description
   
   As a user, I want to report APISIX's logs to Elasticsearch, so that i can 
check the logs with Kibana easily.
   
   Elasticsearch is the distributed search and analytics engine that provides 
   a unified data store for solutions built on the Elastic Stack. According to 
the 
   latest database search engine ranking [1], Elasticsearch has been ranked 
   second Kibana provides access to the Elastic Observability, Security, and 
   Enterprise Search solutions, enables you to interactively explore, 
   visualize, and share insights into your data. APISIX report logs with 
   Elasticsearch's Bulk API [2].
   
   The following are the design and technical details:
   
   1. Name
   
     elasticsearch-logging
   
   2. Configuration
   
   ```json
   {
       "endpoint": {
           "uri": "https://127.0.0.1:9200/<target>",
           "index": "service",
           "type": "collector",
           "username": "elastic",
           "password": "elastic",
           "ssl": true
       },
       "inactive_timeout": 10,
       "max_retry_count": 0,
       "buffer_duration": 60,
       "retry_delay": 1,
       "batch_max_size": 1
   }
   ```
   
   - `endpoint` Elasticsearch HTTP/HTTPS endpoint
   - `endpoint.uri` Elasticsearch HTTP/HTTPS request uri, 
      `elasticsearch-logging` will add "_bulk" at the end of it [3].
   - `endpoint.index` Elasticsearch HTTP/HTTPS "_index" field [4]
   - `endpoint.type` Elasticsearch HTTP/HTTPS "_type" field [5]
   - `endpoint.username` Elasticsearch HTTP/HTTPS 
   
   - `max_retry_count` maximum number of retries before removing the 
   entry from the processing pipeline when an error occurs.
   - `retry_delay` number of seconds the process execution should 
   be delayed if the execution fails.
   - `buffer_duration` max age in seconds of the oldest entry in a batch
   before the batch must be processed
   - `inactive_timeout` max age in seconds when the buffer will be flushed
   if inactive
   - `batch_max_size` max size of each batch
   
   3. Details
   
   3.1 Configuration process
   1. Get the username and password of Elasticsearch if needed. 
   2. Set the request URI, index, type(not necessary, Elasticsearch will config
   it with default config if it is null) to the plugin configuration.
   
   3.2 HTTP Request process
   1. Obtain and assemble request information data in the APISIX Log stage, 
   data format refer to [6].
   2. Add the assemble request data to the batch queue.
   3. When the threshold of the batch queue is triggered, the requested data
   is subbmitted in batches to ElasticSearch.
