[Filebeat] set output in prospectors section

[yodog]

as per https://discuss.elastic.co/t/two-filebeat-instances/123132 i believe it would be of benefit if we could set the output on a prospector basis instead of a global, yml wide, output.elasticsearch or output.logstash

currently i have two instances of filebeat running, one for each output, that could easily be set like below:

filebeat.prospectors:

- type  : log
  output: elasticsearch
  paths :
    - /opt/zimbra/log/mailbox.log

- type  : log
  output: logstash
  paths :
    - /var/log/myapp/*/*.log

or

filebeat.prospectors:

- type: log
  output.elasticsearch:
    enable: true
    hosts : ["localhost"]
  paths:
    - /opt/zimbra/log/mailbox.log

- type: log
  output.logstash:
    enable: true
    hosts : ["host.domain"]
  paths :
    - /var/log/myapp/*/*.log
