Cherry-pick of PR #8646 to 6.4 branch. Original message:
The action part of the bulk request used to be a constant (used to use
'var' for init purposes only), but with 6.4 we have had to introduce the
index._type
field per monitoring type.With the introduction of telemetry we ended up with 2 publisher
pipelines and 2 outputs, each with slightly different parameters, yet
the action part has become a 'global' shared variable, that was modified
by each reporter. If metrics and telemetry publish events at the same
time, there is a race in modifying the global and serializing the bulk
request.
This change removes the global and creates an action item per event,
such that there will be no sharing at all.
