Cherry-pick of PR #18359 to 7.8 branch. Original message:

What does this PR do?

ECS prior to 1.6 specified normalizing http.request.method to lowercase.
ECS team is planning on deprecating the normalization.

following versions:

  • apache/access (7.7 - 7.8)
  • elasticsearch/audit (7.7 - 7.8)

  • iis/error (7.7 - 7.8)
  • nginx/access (7.8)
  • nginx/ingress_controller (7.8)
  • aws/elb (7.7 - 7.8)
  • suricata/eve (7.4 - 7.8)
  • zeek/http (7.8)

Why is it important?

This resulted in the loss of information that can be used for anomoly detection.
ECS team is planning on deprecated this normalization.
