Describe the enhancement:

journald has a _CAP_EFFECTIVE field 1. This could be used to populate the ECS 8.10 process.thread.capabilities.effective field from the journald input code.

Here is a sample event is export format that contains _CAP_EFFECTIVE: journald.export.txt

Describe a specific use case for the enhancement or feature:

Our software should be aligned to ECS where possible. Formatting the data in the same way makes is possible to uniformly query all processes data that mentions a given Linux capability.
