Bump plugins to get latest documentation changes

[jordansissel]

We've made some documentation changes in most plugins, and in order for those docs changes to ship with 5.6.0, we need to release every plugin that's had a docs change.

We didn't notice this in time for the 5.5.0 release, and on release day, we (mostly @dedemorton's hard work) do a lot of contortions in order to get the docs updated. It was manual and difficult work.

This is a blocker for 5.6.0 because I'm not going through that pain again :)

The tooling we have right now (thanks, @ph!) has certain expectations about how the plugin version is written, and there are a handful of plugins that use a different versioning system than the rest of the plugins

I'm going to try and fix that before moving forward on this. I'll keep this updated as I progress.

% egrep "version += +[^'\"][^0-9]" tmp/*/*gemspec  | fex /2 ':{2:}'
logstash-filter-dissect   s.version = DISSECT_VERSION
logstash-filter-useragent   s.version         = :File.read('version').split("\n").first
logstash-input-beats   s.version         = BEATS_VERSION
logstash-input-kinesis   spec.version       = Logstash:Input:Kinesis:VERSION
logstash-input-tcp   s.version       = :File.read('version').split("\n").first

The rest use s.version = 'some version string'.

Patches pushed to branches, here's a sample:

• version bump for some docs fixes logstash-plugins/logstash-input-beats#254
• version bump for some docs fixes logstash-plugins/logstash-codec-cef#47
• version bump for some docs fixes logstash-plugins/logstash-input-file#160

@jsvd Can you take a look at some of these branches in the above comment?

I'm going to spot check a few others. All plugins should now have a patch-test branch that has the same changes applied (version bump + changelog).

Next steps for me to do after the reviews are completed:

1. Get these patches merged in plugins
2. Publish all plugins
3. Update Logstash 5.6 branch's gem lock to target new plugins

@jordansissel the test PR's look good, same for your version-bumper branch.

One thing to note is that several plugins had their major versions bumped, and these will only be included in Logstash 6.0

For all of these it's necessary to branch off of the latest release tag and bump that branch.

We can see the major versions of plugins used by 5.5.1 by running the command below in
bin/logstash -i irb (we should be able to use bin/ruby but I couldn't get Bundler to set up correctly:

Bundler.environment.specs.select {|spec| spec.metadata["logstash_plugin"] == "true" }.map {|spec| [spec.name, spec.version.segments[0] ].join(",")}

From here we should be able to fetch the latest patch or minor release tag in each plugin repo, branch from there, and execute your bump_version

@jsvd yeah I had that thought; thank you for verifying! I'm expecting this to be a bit of a battle given the docs changes may have landed only in the new majors, but I will find out soon.

[jordansissel]

I'm pushing all the current changes to plugins now.

Next step will be to do the same patch bumps on all plugin minor versions targeted for Logstash 5.6
