Add configurable number of 'most recent' date-stamped indices to gather in the Elasticsearch input plugin, and allow wildcards to account for date-suffixed index names. Configuring '3' for num_most_recent_indices will only gather the 3 latest indices, based on the date or number they end with. Finding the date or number is dependent on the targeted indices being configured with wildcards at the end of their 'base' names.
