Title: Allow ShardsAllocator to be configured via node level settings.

* Default ShardsAllocator is set to BalancedShardsAllocator
* Core ShardsAllocator implementations can be defined via 'cluster.routing.allocation.type'
* Core ShardsAllocator implementations are exposed via short keys 'balanced' (BalancedShardsAllocator) and 'even_shards' (EvenShardsCountAllocator)
* Third party allocators can be loaded via fully-qualified class names.

Closes #2557
