Pipeline function list_get negative index addressing

[ryan-carroll-graylog]

What?

I want to get the last element of the list, or the second-last element. In other languages like python I can use -1, -2 and so on to get elements from the end of the list. This would be very useful.

Why?

Support issue request: https://github.com/Graylog2/support/issues/56

scenario:
I have a dns-query log with domains like helpcenter.graylog.com. I want to extract the second level domain (graylog) and the top level domain (com), and save them into another field.
What I did to archive this:

1. split the field with the split function,
2. calculate the length of the list, as it could be shorter or longer. Save it in the variable "len"
3. list_get(list,len - 2) for the second last item, list_get(list,len - 1) for the fields
4. concat them to save
   Step 2+3 would be much easier, if I just could address them with -1 and -2. It's mainly a point of convenienc
