What does this PR do?

This PR removes the experimental flag from the append_fields configuration for beats.

Why is it important?

The config option has been added some time ago and became a common way of adding fields to index templates for beats/APM Server. There are no breaking changes expected, so the feature can be considered GA.

@simitt, Does this PR close elastic/apm-server#1371 as well? Or do you envision additional changes to the documentation before that issue is closed?

Thanks for the review, pushed the changelog now. Failing tests were unrelated.

@bmorelli25 the docs already mention everything important related to this config option (overwriting templates, when they are applied etc). In my opinion no changes needed for the docs.
