1. x-pack/filebeat/input/httpjson: drop response bodies at end of execution …

   The response bodies of the first and last responses were being held in a
   closed-over variable resulting in high static memory loads in some
   situations. The bodies are not used between periodic executions with the
   documentation stating that only cursor values are persisted across
   restarts. The difference in behaviour between using the body field over
   a restart versus over a sequence of executions in the same run make them
   unsafe, so clarify the persistence behaviour in the documentation and
   free the bodies at the end of an execution.
   
   A survey of integrations that use the httpjson input did not identify
   any that are using behaviour that is being removed, but we will need to
   keep an eye on cases that may have been missed. In general, if
   persistence is being depended on, the cursor should be being used.
