Hi!

In my setup, the "eve" log files are separated by category.

Using the Suricata module, how can I send both eve files to elastic? is it possible to use the example below?

```auto
- module: suricata
  eve:
    enabled: true
    var.paths: ["/my/path/suricata-events.json"]
    var.paths: ["/my/path/suricata-alerts.json"]

```

Try this:

```auto
- module: suricata
  eve:
    enabled: true
    var.paths:
      - "/my/path/suricata-events.json"
      - "/my/path/suricata-alerts.json"

```
