Description
This issue is to track interest in adding in a percentage configuration to the Drop Event Processor. When specified, the given percentage of messages will be dropped. The default value would be 100. Valid values would be [0, 100].
In Logstash, this is already implemented (documentation here.)

Done means the processor accepts and validates percentage values and drops messages accordingly, with coverage for the specified boundaries and default.
