Hi,

When I run curator with multiple actions, only first action was executed. I use curator 5.7.6 and elasticsearch 7.1.0

`curator --config config.yml actions.yml`

Configuration file

```
---
actions:
  1:
    action: delete_indices
    description: 'Delete indices filebeat swarm staging'
    options:
      ignore_empty_list: True
      continue_if_exception: True
    filters:
      - filtertype: age
        source: creation_date
        direction: older
        unit: days
        unit_count: 15
      - filtertype: pattern
        kind: regex
        value: '^(filebeat-swarm-staging-).*$'

  2:
    action: delete_indices
    description: 'Delete indices filebeat swarm prod'
    options:
      ignore_empty_list: True
      continue_if_exception: True
    filters:
      - filtertype: age
        source: creation_date
        direction: older
        unit: days
        unit_count: 30
      - filtertype: pattern
        kind: regex
        value: '^(filebeat-swarm-prod-).*$'
  3:
    action: delete_indices
    description: 'Delete indices metricbeat'
    options:
      ignore_empty_list: True
      continue_if_exception: True
    filters:
      - filtertype: age
        source: creation_date
        direction: older
        unit: days
        unit_count: 15
      - filtertype: pattern
        kind: regex
        value: '^(metricbeat-).*$'

```

Output logs

`2019-06-21 11:27:20,679 INFO Preparing Action ID: test1, "delete_indices"`

Is it possible to have multiple actions in one file?

Regards,
