BulkIndexer change _routing -> routing to support ES 7

Dylan Griffith requested to merge fix-bulk-indexer-es7-compatibility into master

What does this MR do?

In ES 6.x onwards _routing is deprecated in the bulk API but in 7.x it was removed completely. While this is sadly not clearly documented it's referenced in a few places like https://discuss.elastic.co/t/deprecated-field-routing-used-expected-routing-instead/115951 and we also learnt this when fixing the Go indexer at gitlab-elasticsearch-indexer!34 (closed)

I have tested this version works for 6.5.1 , 6.8.1 and 7.5.1 . Additionally since this is the same way that our Go gitlab-elasticsearch-indexer is behaving this should be a safe change.
