v0.9.16 & 0.9.17 - ElasticSearch support

Some small and incremental releases which added the following new features:

ElasticSearchStorageProvider: a new ElasticSearchStorageProvider is available and allows you to use ElasticSearch 7 and up as a NoSQL database for your jobs.
Redis: If you use Redis, you now have the option to use either Jedis or Lettuce as client library. To do so, choose one of the StorageProviders below:
- JedisRedisStorageProvider - this is the existing Redis StorageProvider (using Jedis) but it has been renamed.
- LettuceRedisStorageProvider - this is the new Redis StorageProvider (using Lettuce).

Breaking change

The RedisStorageProvider has been renamed to JedisRedisStorageProvider
