In 7.9.2 version of logstash, when logstash is run using pipelines.yml, an error occurs saying  
`"Invalid value \"persisted#\". Options are : \"persisted\", \"memory\" ".`

The error occurs in `settings.rb` file validate(value) function.

In `logstash.yml`, the configurations are made properly as follows:  
`queue.type: persisted`

Tried different variations for this configuration, still the same error comes up:  
`queue.type: "persisted"`  
`queue.type: "memory"`

Also, commented out this line. The error still persists.

Please provide any suggestions on how this issue can be resolved.

Thanks, in advance.
