* [DOCS] Describe how to use Elastic Agent to monitor Elasticsearch
* Temporarily fix doc build
* Add question about showing Elastic Agent metrics in the monitoring UI
* Apply changes from review
* Activate link to Kibana docs
* Fix broken link
* Update docs/reference/monitoring/indices.asciidoc
* updated correct API to get index templates etc
Hi, I think documentation needs correction on below points.
1. updated correct API to get index template
2. on line 18, it should be index pattern instead of template pattern
3. index pattern should have es version as 8 which matches elasticsearch version, also updated index patterns in API request payload
* fix: grammatical correction to line 18
removed "the" from line 18 which is not very accuarate

* additional corrections to the docs as suggested by @abdonpijpelink
. use the `_index_template` endpoint instead of just `_template`
. change `order` to `priority`
* settings need to be wrapped inside template obect

* Metricbeat monitoring collection suggest to enable local exporters
Those steps are not needed.
1. We enable the local _legacy_ exporters
2. In the last step, we disable the local _legacy_ exporters again.
* Also remove legacy collection step from Filebeat page

* Adding Getting Help section
Add getting help section in the troubleshooting guide to be pointed by health API when issues are too complicated to be addressed.
This is taken from https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/cloud/current/ec-get-help.html, someone might want to elaborate it a bit more?
* Fix broken partintro, modify headings, and update wording

This PR adds four new templates that are automatically installed from the Monitoring plugin.
In 8.x, Metricbeat will be writing its data in ECS compliant format, even when used with xpack
mode enabled (stack monitoring). In order to continue to support the legacy data format, new
mappings have been created with the new ECS fields for indexing data, and alias fields for the
legacy format which point to the corresponding ECS fields.

Removes `testenv` annotations and related code. These annotations originally let you skip x-pack snippet tests in the docs. However, that's no longer possible.
Relates to #79309, #31619
This PR deprecates all monitoring settings as well as adds deprecation info entries for each setting.
Collecting and shipping monitoring data using the Monitoring plugin will be deprecated in 7.16 and will be removed at some point in the 8.x line after sufficient wait time. The recommended approach for collecting and shipping monitoring data going forward is to use Metricbeat. The recommended approach for alerting is Kibana alerting.
Today we mention Metricbeat's `scope` parameter but offer no guidance
about how it should be used. This commit adds guidance to use `scope:
cluster`, especially on clusters with dedicated master-eligible nodes.

* Make xpack.monitoring.enabled setting a no-op
This commit turns xpack.monitoring.enabled into a no-op. Mostly, this involved
removing the setting from the setup for integration tests. Monitoring may
introduce some complexity for test setup and teardown, so we should keep an eye
out for turbulence and failures
* Docs for making deprecated setting a no-op
We believe there's no longer a need to be able to disable basic-license
features completely using the "xpack.*.enabled" settings. If users don't
want to use those features, they simply don't need to use them. Having
such features always available lets us build more complex features that
assume basic-license features are present.
This commit deprecates settings of the form "xpack.*.enabled" for
basic-license features, excluding "security", which is a special case.
It also removes deprecated settings from integration tests and unit
tests where they're not directly relevant; e.g. monitoring and ILM are
no longer disabled in many integration tests.
This change adds a new `kibana_admin` role, and deprecates
the old `kibana_user` and`kibana_dashboard_only_user`roles.
The deprecation is implemented via a new reserved metadata
attribute, which can be consumed from the API and also triggers
deprecation logging when used (by a user authenticating to
Elasticsearch).
Some docs have been updated to avoid references to these
deprecated roles.
