bug 1094767; crashstorage type for new ES module

This PR introduces a crashstorage type for the new ES module.  It also modifies the `ConnectionContext` class to bring it in line with the patterns established in the other `external` modules.  The changes to the context required some other modifications to be made to the index creation class (and associated tests).

This is a processor-specific option, there is no point in making it a global ES option, I think.
