[DISCUSS] Drop Elasticssearch 1 connector

[Chesnay Schepler-3]

Hello everyone,

I'm proposing to remove the connector for elasticsearch 1.

The connector is used significantly less than more recent versions (2&5
are downloaded 4-5x more), and hasn't seen any development for over a
hear, yet still incurred maintenance overhead due to licensing and testing.

+1 for dropping elasticsearch 1 connector.

Previously released versions are still available and compatible with newer
Flink versions anyways.

Elasticsearch 1.x is already 5 years old, and is already highly discouraged
to be used by the Elasticsearch community already.

+1 to drop this kind of thing to mitigate maintenance effort.
