helm-charts [kube-prometheus-stack] Selectively enable Default Grafana Dashboards and allow annotations

Is your feature request related to a problem ?

I would like to be able choose which default dashboards to enable for grafana and have the ability to add annotations to them so that I can place them into specific folders.

Describe the solution you'd like.

For it to work selectively it would look somewhat similar to the default alert manager rules which are enabled like this:

defaultRules:
  create: true
  rules:
    alertmanager: true
    etcd: true
    configReloaders: false
    general: true

We could potentially take it one step further and then allow custom annotations for each one, in the end it would be enabled something like this:

defaultDashboards:
  create: true
  dashboards: 
    kubernetes_api_server:
      enabled: true
      annotations:
        - k8s-sidecar-target-directory: /tmp/dashboards/Kubernetes
    kubernetes_compute_resources_pod:
      enabled: true
      annotations:
        - k8s-sidecar-target-directory: /tmp/dashboards/Kubernetes

If you didn't specify an annotation it can just be set to {} or just not included at all

Describe alternatives you've considered.

none, I don't see any other approach at the moment other than copying the dashboard code and deploying them separately

Would love this as well - currently everything gets deployed into the 'General' folder.

Same here, would be nice to be able to clean up and set a better folder layout suited to our orgs needs!

+1 for this. Is there currently a way to at least customize the default 'General' to anything else now for all of them?
