Conversation
## What does this PR do? This PR adds support for reading from UNIX datagram sockets both from the `unix` input and the `syslog` input. A new option is added to select the type of the socket named `socket_type`. Available options are: `stream` and `datagram`. ## Why is it important? A few applications which send logs over Unix sockets, use datagrams not streams. From now on, Filebeat can accept input from these applications as well. Closes elastic#18632 (cherry picked from commit 3a1d1ae)
