* Refactor component heartbeat callbacks Consolidate the OK/degraded broadcasts so the same logic isn't duplicated for each component. * Periodically update discovered desktops Fixes #8644 * Allow customizing the desktop search With this change, we support a discovery base DN other than '*', and add support for further filtering the results with additional LDAP filters. Additionally, we filter out group managed service accounts, which show up in LDAP searches for (objectClass=computer), despite not being comptuers. (This is mostly harmless, as the service accounts aren't present in DNS, so Teleport just ignores them. It does, however, log a DNS error message that could be confusing, so we explicitly filter these out just to be safe. This was discovered when testing on AWS managed AD, which creates a gMSA for DNS.

What
In the initial implementation of host discovery, we only search for Windows desktops once on startup. This prevents us from picking up new desktops or timing out desktops that leave the domain.
How
Run the LDAP search query on a configurable interval. Ensure that the heartbeat goroutine produces heartbeats for each of the hosts based on the most recent LDAP search.
Why
In order to keep an accurate list of Windows desktops.
