Description

The PutElasticsearchRecord (or the related ES client service) should allow for null values to be suppressed (like PutElasticsearchHttpRecord) as it's not always desirable to have null values for empty fields (which might be present in the schema used to read the data in nifi but not populated).

Likely this will need changes to the configuration of the ObjectMapper used by the ES service depending upon user provided settings.
