Support Json Arrays or custom keys for _bulk_docs
## Summary
The Bulk doc insert works well but only if the data is sent in a very
specific format. The "docs" key needs to have the array that needs to be
inserted. It would be great if we had a way to customize that a bit.
## Desired Behaviour
`POST /db/_bulk_docs?arrayKey=keyname`
Accepts the data below and adds the multiple documents under <keyname>
instead of "docs"
```
{
"<keyname>": [
{
"key1": "value1"
},
{
"key2": "value2"
}
]
}
```
Also, it would be great to have a way of also passing the array directly and
indicate as such in the parameter
`POST /db/_bulk_docs?arrayKey=null`
Accepts the data below and adds the multiple documents present in the array.
```
[
{
"key1": "value1"
},
{
"key2": "value2"
}
]
```
## Additional context
I'm trying to send data to couchdb from a 3rd party tool that has limited
capabilities for customization. I know of a few more tools that can send data
to webhooks for reporting/audit/alerting etc. and couchdb would be perfect way
to ingest,store, query and report on this data.
