[ES|QL] Fixes the problem with Discover and queries without the from command

[stratoula]

Summary

Closes #163417

When there was no from command in the query we were using the current dataview. This might have the @timestamp field which is not returned by the ROW ... or Show meta commands. So the histogram was failing.

I am solving this issue by creating a dataview based on the current dataview but without the timeFieldName

I still think we should find another way to deal with these commands but for now this is a nice way forward

I didn't see Matt's PR tbh, I think it will still have the @timestamp error I mention here

It seems that it was created 3 weeks ago but didnt finish. Is there any particular reason?

It seems that we are at the same track though, I am also fixing the aforementioned bug though. Is there any problem on moving on with this PR?

I am expecting multiple users to use the ROW command, I don't want to have this bug before GA.

Update: On. second glance without testing his PR, I think he doesnt have the bug either. So let's proceed with one of the PRs but please let's merge it on 8.14 🙏 (I like my extra check, why search on the fields when we know that for empty string it won't have the field?)

yes, I've tested with both PRs and both fix the problem 🎉 ... the extra check makes sense IMO, but can also be added to the other PR for sure

I am a bit confused with this
