Regressions

#17178 has been tested as part of 8.17.8 release test plan: #17256 but we want to test it in this branch too as we are releasing them at the same time.

I'm testing #17295.

Update: my test failed, see #17295 (comment)

I'm testing #17178.

Update: a unit test was added to this PR covering the new behavior.

Related to the apm-data bug, I tested 2 scenarios (based on tests in this PR):

• upgrade from 8.16.2 to 8.17.8 then 8.18.3: event.ingested is present as expected
• upgrade from 8.16.2 to 8.18.2 then 8.18.3: event.ingested is present as expected

Update: I tested using SNAPSHOT versions and not BCs. Re-running the tests with BCs.
Update 2: Both tests passed with BC too.

I'm testing #17299.

Update: my test failed, see #17299 (comment)

based on our testing, the 8.18.3 BC was made from commit 687ef40, which does not include #17299 nor #17295
