Elasticsearch Curator has been around for many different versions of Elasticsearch.
Earlier releases of Curator supported multiple versions of Elasticsearch, but this is no longer
the case.

Curator is now major version locked with Elasticsearch, which means that if
Curator's major version is {curator_major}, it should support any Elasticsearch {curator_major}.x
release.

However, in many cases, the API calls that Curator makes do not change between
the current and previous major releases, or at least the last few minor releases
of the previous major release. This has proven to be the case, and starting with
Curator 8.0.18, Curator v8 has been tested to work with Elasticsearch 7.14+.
