Updates to get forwarder and Kibana 4 to work #147

I've created a few updates in order to get the logstash forwarder to work on both a logstash server and by itself.

Changed the nginx config to work with any host you specify in the URL.

Pulling directly from kibana_lwrp so that the request_timeout is set correctly. This can be ignored if they update their deployed package.

Hi there -- could you include some test-kitchen or chefspec tests in this PR that demonstrate the problem you're fixing? We had actually been doing nightly CI jobs that combined logstash and logstash-forwader on one system, without any trouble. I'd like to better understand what problems you're running into that required these changes.
