* Add "synthetics-*-*" templates for synthetics fleet data
For the Elastic Agent we currently have `logs` and `metrics`, however, synthetic data doesn't belong
with those and thus we should have a place for it to live. This would be data reported from
heartbeat and under the 'monitoring' category.
This commit adds a composable index template for `synthetics-*-*` indices similar to the work in
#56709 and #57629.
Resolves#61665
Adds an important admonition for the built-in `metrics-*-*` and `logs-*-*` index
templates.
Updates several put index template snippets to include a priority.
This makes the data_stream timestamp field specification optional when
defining a composable template.
When there isn't one specified it will default to `@timestamp`.

Backporting #56888 to 7.x branch.
Limit the creation of data streams only for namespaces that have a composable template with a data stream definition.
This way we ensure that mappings/settings have been specified and will be used at data stream creation and data stream rollover.
Also remove `timestamp_field` parameter from create data stream request and
let the create data stream api resolve the timestamp field
from the data stream definition snippet inside a composable template.
Relates to #53100
This commit removes the `prefer_v2_templates` flag and setting. This was a brief setting that
allowed specifying whether V1 or V2 template should be used when an index is created. It has been
removed in favor of V2 templates always having priority.
Relates to #53101Resolves#56528
This is not a breaking change because this flag was never in a released version.
