When instrumenting APM Kibana redacts all usernames from the APM data:

https://github.com/elastic/kibana/blob/main/packages/kbn-apm-config-loader/src/init_apm.ts#L25

However, some users would like to instrument Kibana with APM and preserve the usernames for further analysis. To enable this use case for these users we should introduce a config option like redactUsernames: schema.maybe(schema.boolean({ defaultValue: true })) so that users can disable the redaction.

we should introduce a config option like redactUsernames

Under the elastic.apm config prefix I assume? (Otherwise it may be slightly harder to have it available in the @kbn/apm-config-loader package)

Then the only thing we need to be careful about is to make sure this "custom" apm configuration property is not propagated down to apm

const apmConfig = apmConfigLoader.getConfig(serviceName);
