Strongly typed Elasticsearch client

NEST aims to be a .net client with a very concise API.

Indexing is as simple as:

var post = new Post() { Id = 12, ... }
var result = client.Index(post);

Indexing asynchronously is as easy as:

//t is a Task<ConnectionStatus>
var t = client.IndexAsync(post);

Searching is fluid:

var results = this.ConnectedClient.Search<ElasticSearchProject>(s => s
		.From(0)
		.Size(10)
		.Fields(f => f.Id, f => f.Name)
		.SortAscending(f => f.LOC)
		.SortDescending(f => f.Name)
		.Query(q=>q.Term(f=>f.Name, "NEST", Boost: 2.0))
);

A special shoutout to @stephenpope for allowing his port of the java factory based dsl Rubber to be merged into NEST. NEST now has two types of query dsl's (lambda and factory based)!
