A FTR-based SM smoke test

[matschaffer]

Summary

Attempting to make a stack monitoring "smoke test" that we can use to validate various SM collection models without lots of manual testing.

Rel: #120825

NOTE: You'll need to run yarn start --no-base-path (and ensure server.basePath isn't in your config).

FTR doesn't support a basepath in TEST_KIBANA_URL. #121980 was an attempt at fixing this but doesn't seem worth the work at this point to get it passing.

Run with TEST_KIBANA_MONITORING_SMOKE=1 TEST_KIBANA_URL=http://elastic:changeme@localhost:5601 node scripts/functional_test_runner.js --config x-pack/test/functional/config.js (no grep because the test is describe.only)

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.

Closing this down. Interesting idea, but probably we should focus more on how to do this for integrations at this stage.
