The location of the field formatters was changed in 6.0. You can find all the types [here](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/tree/5cddc100778f0dfd5c2e1f1342ab40a1cc7f52b9/src/core_plugins/kibana/common/field_formats/types) and the registration happens [here](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/blob/c9c135ea14bc9b024c41d950225a7cc37c9e9106/src/core_plugins/kibana/public/field_formats/register.js).

The preferred way to add a custom field formatter is via a plugin, but there's currently a bug preventing plugins from registering them. We're working on a fix, but until then it should still be possible to modify the Kibana source if you really need to.
