Hi,  
I used kibana and elastic v7.13.3,  
I want my nested fields put inner outer filed in json format instead of creating seperate field for each of them.

```auto
{
"fields.ExceptionDetail.ValidationResultModel.Errors.Message.keyword": ["'Id' must be greater than '0'."],
"fields.ExceptionDetail.TargetSite.keyword": ["Void MoveNext()"],
    "exceptions.Message.keyword": [
      "Exception of type 'BuildingBlocks.Validation.ValidationException' was thrown."
    ],
"fields.ExceptionDetail.Type.keyword": ["BuildingBlocks.Validation.ValidationException"],
"fields.ExceptionDetail.HResult": [-2146233088],

}

```

I expect all of them to be in the same `ExceptionDetail` field, as some nested element of this field
