The current recommendation in serverless tests is to use SAML role based testing. The only way to test roles is to use API keys. However only public routes should use API keys in the header. Internal routes do not use API keys and instead we should be using a cookie to check for authentication. It's currently possible to get a cookie for a built in role (admin, editor, viewer), using svlManager, however it does not support custom users.

From appex-qa team:
With SAML simulation in local env, we create roles when we start the Kibana. We tell Elasticsearch what roles are in places and just grant admin, editor and viewer its own. Plan is to add a possibility to create custom role and locally it will be assigned to the new user (no ETA, but probably within a month) But currently for consistency with MKI (we can't generate new users in Elastic Cloud), we are not able to do so.

Change all our serverless api integration internal routes to use cookie authentication instead of API Key headers which should only be used for public routes. Also look into adding users to the observabilityAIAssistantAPIClient service, as we do in stateful, using cookie auth.

PR that makes getting the cookie easier for the built in users/roles #192727

Afaik custom SAML roles won't be supported by Oblt serverless project, so either it is no longer the case or there is no need to cover such test scenario.
In theory you might want to have 2 users of the same default role (e.g. Editor) and we probably can make it work on both Kibana CI and MKI.

Tests for serverless

- copies over and modifies all tests from stateful to work in
serverless. ~~deployment agnostic tests do not yet support enterprise
license for stateful, so are tests don't yet qualify as being deployment
agnostic~~. Given how difficult it is to see differences from the
stateful tests, I've added PR comments where I've changed something that
might be of interest.
- changes to `createObservabilityAIAssistantApiClient` to use supertest
without basic auth and accept headers for serverless and use roles
- removes creating persisted users when tests start and [use
roles](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/blob/main/x-pack/test_serverless/README.md#roles-based-testing)
within tests. its not possible to create custom users with the
serverless test framework at the moment. See
#192711

Skipped tests
- knowledge base tests #192886
- any test suite that uses the LLM proxy has been skipped on MKI
#192751
- all tests that depend on the config.modelId skipped in MKI
#192757

TODO:

- [x] move over remaining tests
- [x]  test in MKI environment before merging
- [x] create issues for skipped tests
- [ ] this will not run on MKI (after merging) unless we ping the
appex-qa team to add it to the pipeline. this is due to creating a
separate config. ask appex-qa team to add our config.

### Risk Matrix

Delete this section if it is not applicable to this PR.

Before closing this PR, invite QA, stakeholders, and other developers to
identify risks that should be tested prior to the change/feature
release.

When forming the risk matrix, consider some of the following examples
and how they may potentially impact the change:

| Risk | Probability | Severity | Mitigation/Notes |

|---------------------------|-------------|----------|-------------------------|
| Multiple Spaces—unexpected behavior in non-default Kibana Space.
| Low | High | Integration tests will verify that all features are still
supported in non-default Kibana Space and when user switches between
spaces. |
| Multiple nodes—Elasticsearch polling might have race conditions
when multiple Kibana nodes are polling for the same tasks. | High | Low
| Tasks are idempotent, so executing them multiple times will not result
in logical error, but will degrade performance. To test for this case we
add plenty of unit tests around this logic and document manual testing
procedure. |
| Code should gracefully handle cases when feature X or plugin Y are
disabled. | Medium | High | Unit tests will verify that any feature flag
or plugin combination still results in our service operational. |
| [See more potential risk
examples](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/blob/main/RISK_MATRIX.mdx) |
