Add breaking changes documentation for allow_superuser by default #16951

@robbavey

Description

@robbavey

As part of 9.0, the default value of allow_superuser is set to false, instead of true.

This means that a user running Logstash as a superuser, will see the Logstash process fail to start upon upgrade to 9.0.

While we strongly recommend keeping this option, it is possible to revert to the previous behaviour by setting this flag to true
