Description

Creating JIRA ticket as requested by David Handermann in https://apachenifi.slack.com/archives/C0L9VCD47/p1643633831171269

In NiFi version 1.14.0 and later (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-8616), the "Idle Connection Expiration" property in PutSplunk is no longer used. This causes quite a bit of warning spam with "Connection reset by peer" in certain configurations:

One example where this causes this problem is when using an LB between NiFi and Splunk.
