🌊 Streams: Speed up field simulation (#241313)

This PR should speed up field simulation, which is blocking the submit
button when defining mappings. It does the following things:
* Set a timeout
* Reduce sample size
* Set terminate_after and disable track_total_hits to get Elasticsearch
to stop work as soon as possible
* Don't sort the results, otherwise Elasticsearch is forced to evaluate
all the docs because otherwise it can't tell which ones would end up on
top in the order
