Made SSLKey and SSLCrt optional in lumberjack input. If they are absent from the config, it will listen via TCP instead of TLS.

For my use case, I am transmitting only on localhost, as I have 1 logzoom daemon per server, so I don't need the overhead of TLS.

Thanks for the PR. My understanding is that Logstash has insisted that TLS be mandatory: elastic/logstash-forwarder#5 (comment)

Is this no longer true for Filebeat?

I'm not sure if I care to follow the recommendation, myself. I'm using the (official?) elasticsearch golang APII to log directly from my services. https://github.com/elastic/go-lumber . It doesn't use TLS.
