Fixes https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/149344
This PR migrates all plugins to packages automatically. It does this
using `node scripts/lint_packages` to automatically migrate
`kibana.json` files to `kibana.jsonc` files. By doing this automatically
we can simplify many build and testing procedures to only support
packages, and not both "packages" and "synthetic packages" (basically
pointers to plugins).
The majority of changes are in operations related code, so we'll be
having operations review this before marking it ready for review. The
vast majority of the code owners are simply pinged because we deleted
all `kibana.json` files and replaced them with `kibana.jsonc` files, so
we plan on leaving the PR ready-for-review for about 24 hours before
merging (after feature freeze), assuming we don't have any blockers
(especially from @elastic/kibana-core since there are a few core
specific changes, though the majority were handled in #149370).

The location of plugins was previously somewhat irrelevant, but as we
move into packages it's more important that we can find all plugins in
the repository, and we would like to be able to do that without needing
to maintain a manifest somewhere to accomplish this. In order to make
this possible we plan to find any plugin/package by spotting all
kibana.json files which are not "fixtures". This allows plugin-like code
(but not actual plugin code) to exist for testing purposes, but it must
be within some form of "fixtures" directory, and any plugin that isn't
in a fixtures directory will be automatically pulled into the system
(though test plugins, examples, etc. will still only be loaded when the
plugin's path is passed via `--plugin-path`, the system will know about
them and use that knowledge for other things).
Since this is just a rename Operations will review and merge by EOD Jan
12th unless someone has a blocking concern.
