Live Realoding Credentials about o365beat HOT 2 CLOSED

@cloudziu thanks for the issue! I'll take a look at this and see what we can do. Filebeat's live reload has a couple caveats: they don't actually support live reloading of the main config file (filebeat.yml), and they implement it by polling, checking the file every reload.period, which can introduce extra overhead.

Out of curiosity, what's the use-case where you'd be changing credentials without the ability to restart the service?

@cloudziu in researching how filebeat handles this, I realized (a few months late) that filebeat now supports o365 with an official module, as of v7.7.0. It might be that's a better solution for you going forward - and in any case, we're going to feature freeze given that there's an "official" tool now.

Thanks for prompting the search that helped us find this out, hope this helps.
