[Elastic Agent] Add elastic agent ID and version to events from filebeat and metricbeat. #21543

What does this PR do?

Adds the elastic.agent.id, elastic.agent.version, and elastic.agent.snapshot to all events published from filebeat and metricbeat inputs. This includes when filebeat/metricbeat is monitoring the running Elastic Agent itself.

Why is it important?

So it's clear which Elastic Agent sent the events. Elastic Agent has never included this information with each event.

This looks like it could be a fix for an issue I ran into when trying to match up agent logs to agent ID: elastic/kibana#77189 (comment). @blakerouse do you think this PR is relevant to that?

LGTM, @blakerouse are we missing heartbeat?

@ph Yes I did not add heartbeat, I didn't know if Uptime needed the same events and if the processors would work the same.

If we can confirm that heartbeat needs it I can add it in.

we use release.Version and release.Snapshot throughout the code, so maybe we can unify the usage of these where it's possible in a followup

Yeah I would like to. I only had to add this here for testing purposes as I needed a way to mock the version for the unit tests.

@blakerouse I think we should also have the same for heartbeat. This can come after 7.10. cc @andrewvc

@ph I don't believe that heartbeat is also using the new index strategy either. So we have a few things that need to be updated in the spec file for Heartbeat.

@blakerouse I think heartbeat should be disabled in 7.10, @andrewvc WDYT?

Each process run by Elastic Agent should be "forced" to add these fields. Do we have a good place to document this?

Is this field also shipped by endpoint?

Mid term, these fields should not be added anymore through processors but by the processes (MB, FB, *) itself.
