[META] Upgrade to Cypress12

[cwperks]

The opensearch-dashboards-functional-test repo is using an outdated version of Cypress (9.5.4). The current released version of cypress is 12.17.x which contains many useful improvements including support for cross-origin testing. A full changelog can be found here.

A feature branch (feature/cypress12) has been created for dashboards plugin repos to ensure that their tests run with the upgraded version of Cypress.

I am filing a META issue to track the issues filed in each dashboards plugin repo to ensure that their tests can run with Cypress12.

Actually now cypress 9.5.4 has an issue that it will hang the test when running out of memory, and lacks many of the security fix.

I +1 this. There is improvements to performance, and could save our CI time and money.

OSD also takes a dependency on Cypress 9. So we should bump as well.

@peterzhuamazon @cwperks @kavilla @SuZhou-Joe Hi team, I wonder what's the progress to upgrade functional test repo to use cypress 12, is it still on track? Do we have a target release?

Hi @cwperks, I'm working on updating the main OSD repo to Cypress v12 (initial PR) with the goal of getting all of our consumers to an updated and unified version.

I'll post updates here as we make progress.
