Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
## What does this PR do?

Adds a note to
[Modules](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/filebeat/current/filebeat-modules.html)
to advise users to migrate to Elastic Agent.

Preview:
[Modules](https://beats_36157.docs-preview.app.elstc.co/guide/en/beats/filebeat/master/filebeat-modules.html)

## Why is it important?

While Filebeat modules are still supported, we do not typically apply
bug fixes or enhancements to these modules, or ship any new modules. Our
focus is now entirely on Elastic Agent integrations.

Filebeat modules require Elasticsearch 5.2 or later.

NOTE: While {filebeat} modules are still supported, we recommend {agent} integrations over {filebeat} modules. Integrations provide a streamlined way to connect data from a variety of vendors to the {stack}. Refer to the https://www.elastic.co/integrations/data-integrations[full list of integrations]. For more information, please refer to the {fleet-guide}/beats-agent-comparison.html[{beats} vs {agent} comparison documentation].
