Update Beacon extraction rules to drop events rather than update all

Beacons can be configured to auto-extract the component name from the incoming payload. Unfortunately, the beacon's default behaviour is to update ALL components if the rules cannot match the oncoming payload to an existing component.

This is not our desired behaviour, and could cause panic amongst our subscribers.

Instead, can another option be added to DROP events rather than update ALL components?

A workaround is to create a CATCHALL service, but if the beacon auto-creates incidents, this is not ideal, as it'll show on our statuspage.
