Various Elasticsearch improvements

This commit adds the IntelliJ ipr extension to .gitignore. These project
files are created when running the Maven goal idea:idea.

This commit upgrades the Elasticsearch dependency from version 2.3.2 to
version 2.3.4

Today when running the Elasticsearch binding in embedded mode, a
temporary directory is used. This can be confusing for running usual
load-then-run style workflows because the temporary directory will not
be the same between runs. Instead, we should just require a directory
when running in embedded mode and this commit makes this the case.

This commit switches the Elasticsearch test runner from TestNG to JUnit.

This commit adds notes to the Elasticsearch documentation outlining the
difference between embedded and remote modes, and adds an example on
using remote mode.
