Watcher: Allow to execute actions for each element in array (#41997)

This adds the ability to execute an action for each element that occurs
in an array, for example you could sent a dedicated slack action for
each search hit returned from a search.

There is also a limit for the number of actions executed, which is 
hardcoded to 100 right now, to prevent having watches run forever.

The watch history logs each action result and the total number of actions
the were executed.

+=== Running an action for each element in an array
+
+You can use the `foreach` field in an action to trigger the configured action
+for every element within that array.
+
+In order to protect from long running watches, after one hundred runs with an
+foreach loop the execution is gracefully stopped.
