[Console] Add ESQL autocomplete support
Closes https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/208450
Summary
This PR adds ESQL autocomplete support to Console. The ESQL suggestions are only displayed inside triple-quotes queries ("query": """...).
How to test:
- Open Kibana and load some data (e.g. the sample data sets).
- Navigate to Dev Tools -> Console and type in the following query:
POST _query
{
"query": """ """
}
-
Verify that ESQL suggestions are displayed inside the triple quotes and work as in the ESQL editor in Discover. Example ESQL query:
FROM kibana_sample_data_ecommerce | WHERE order_date >= ?_tstart AND order_date <= ?_tend | LIMIT 10 -
Verify that no ESQL suggestions are displayed outside triple-quotes queries
-
Verify that no Console suggestions are displayed inside triple-quotes queries
-
Verify that the functionality also works in embeddable Console.

Pinging @elastic/kibana-management (Team:Kibana Management)
Thank you all for the feedback and sorry for the delayed response - I was OOO these past weeks. I addressed most of the comments and added follow-up questions/comments to the rest.
@ElenaStoeva it would great also if you could check on this bundle increase. It is quite noticeable
Thank you once again for reviewing @stratoula! I opened a few issue based on your feedback:
-
Discoverability issue: We discussed this with the team and decided for now to only enable the ESQL autocompletion inside triple quotes. To make it more visible, we will try adding a hint popup if the user types the query with a single quote - opened https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/223921 to track this work. @wajihaparvez will also help us add documentation to the ESQL docs page and/or the Console docs page - issue: https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/223923
-
Suggestions with params such as ?_tstart, _tend: opened https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/223926 to track this
-
Supporting suggestions that contain triple quotes: opened https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/223954
