Description

At the moment, with the GrokReader, there are two options when a message does not match the grok expression:

• append - this will append the message to the previous one
• skip - this will completely skip the message

This improvement is to add a third option "raw" that will keep the message and will generate a record with only null fields and the _raw field with the raw message.
