## Summary
This PR updates the Log pattern analysis in Discover documentation to
reflect the latest changes in the feature. It also removes the technical
preview admonition at the top of the page.
## Summary
Renames the setting from discover:enableESQL to enableESQL and moves it
to the General Section
<img width="985" alt="image"
src="ebafe7cd-4695-413c-a0e3-90e3574139e5">
We checked the telemetry and a very small percentage of users have
switched off this setting. It was also on tech preview so we decided in
favor of this change as more and more applications are using this
setting to hide ESQL from their applications.
<img width="850" alt="image"
src="404f2494-8a17-4a9d-943a-d9d72b324bc0">
### Release note
We renamed the advanced setting which hides the ES|QL from the UI from
`discover:enableESQL` to `enableESQL`. You have to switch it off again
if you want to disable ES|QL features from your kibana applications.

## Summary
Two pages about ES|QL added to the Kibana guide. One page (titled ES|QL)
under the 'Kibana concepts' heading, which is an overview page. One page
added to the 'Discover' section (titled Try ES|QL) which is a short
tutorial.

## Summary
The pattern analysis feature is a Platinum subscription feature in
technical preview, which is now called out in the warning at the top of
the page. Otherwise users cannot follow the instructions on the page as
the options are not visible.
