Fields statistics support for ES|QL was removed in 8.17 and the information never made its way to the docs. This PRs fixes this by:

  • removing mentions of field statistics panels in Dashboards docs
  • adding a note that field statistics aren't available in ES|QL mode in Discover. They're still there in KQL mode

As the changes get confirmed, I'll create a corresponding PR for relevant 8.x docs

Closes: #3027

I'll merge this as is now to avoid leaving erroneous information in the docs, and will make any further refinement later if needed.
