Instruments Kibana with Elastic APM by adding the Node.js agent to the source code. The agent is not turned on by default but can be enabled by setting the environment variable `ELASTIC_APM_ACTIVE=true` or by creating an apm config file called `config/apm.dev.js` and setting `active: true` inside of it. This implementation is not meant to be used by end-users of Kibana as it lacks integration with the regular Kibana config file. For now, this is meant as a useful internal tool for Elastic employees when developing Kibana. By default, it's pre-configured with a `serverUrl` pointing to an APM Server hosted on Elastic Cloud. The data is stored in an ES cluster accessible only by Elastic employees. These defaults can easily be overwritten using environment variables or via the custom config file.
