This commit introduces a module for Kibana that exposes REST APIs that
will be used by Kibana for access to its system indices. These APIs are wrapped
versions of the existing REST endpoints. A new setting is also introduced since
the Kibana system indices' names are allowed to be changed by a user in case
multiple instances of Kibana use the same instance of Elasticsearch.
Additionally, the ThreadContext has been extended to indicate that the use of
system indices may be allowed in a request. This will be built upon in the future
for the protection of system indices.
Backport of #52385
