In alpha2, this: ./metricbeat -e -E output.elasticsearch.enabled=false results in:

2017/06/01 07:53:47.544643 beat.go:539: CRIT Exiting: Template loading requested but the Elasticsearch output is not configured/enabled

That's a regression, if the ES output is disabled, template loading should also be disabled.

The workaround is to add -E setup.template.enabled: false.

Only attempt loading the ES template if ES output is enabled
78bc5f0 
It used to raise an error if any template setting was set but
the ES output wasn't enabled. This caused problems with the new
Metricbeat config, which sets template settings in the configuration.

Also removes the code that enables the template loading on `-setup`,
because template loading is by default enabled anyway.

Fixes elastic#4435.
