Description

It would be great to be able to set up udp input for netflow collector more verbosely, like:

1. **workers** - by default is 2 regarding logstash-input-udp-3.1.2/lib/logstash/inputs/udp.rb
2. **receive_buffer_bytes** - by default is 212992 in Ubuntu 16.04
3. **queue_size** - by default is 2000 regarding logstash-input-udp-3.1.2/lib/logstash/inputs/udp.rb

Research direction

Start by reading logstash-input-udp-3.1.2/lib/logstash/inputs/udp.rb, which the issue cites for the current workers and queue_size defaults, and compare those with the Ubuntu receive_buffer_bytes default. The work is done when netflow's UDP input can configure workers, receive_buffer_bytes, and queue_size individually with the requested defaults.
