This adds the beat version to the index and the template. The advantage of this is that an index always has the correct template applied based on the beats version. Currently during upgrade it must be waited until the next day. Only then the new template is applied. Also it helps in case different versions of beats are running in parallel. Each beat puts its data into the correct index.
The index name is now `beatname-%{[beat.version]}-%{+yyyy.MM.dd}` by default.
This should not have any affects on the dashboards or Kibana in general as `beatname-*` still applies to all data. Are there some potential side affects of this?
