Describe the feature:
Add the ability to enable HDR mode for Percentiles metrics in the UI. Currently the only way to enable HDR is to add the following to JSON Input:
{"hdr": { "number_of_significant_value_digits" : 3 }}
Describe a specific use case for the feature:
The percentiles aggregation has the ability to use either t-digest or HDR mode to support different workloads (https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/search-aggregations-metrics-percentile-aggregation.html#_hdr_histogram). HDR is order of magnitudes faster for operations like latency profiling. Providing the ability to easily toggle between the modes would be a huge win for visibility of the feature and ease of use.
