Show ES|QL and classic mode alternatives where steps pick a data view #9192

Open

Description

@florent-leborgne

Problem

{{kib}} now opens Discover in {{esql}} mode by default, so steps that tell readers to select a data view or use the KQL search bar don't match what they see. This covers pages outside the Discover section, such as Observability tutorials, Fleet and Kubernetes guides, deployment pages, and alerting pages.

Scope

Pages where the {{esql}} path is a simple equivalent:

Classic mode content stays, because classic mode is the default in {{stack}} 9.0 to 9.5 and is available in every version.

Pull request

Done in #9017.
