opensearch: automate index pattern creation in dashboards
Previously, operators had to manually create the default index pattern after the first login to OpenSearch Dashboards. This commit automates the creation of the default index pattern using the OpenSearch Dashboards Saved Objects API during the post-config phase. The pattern is dynamically named based on the opensearch_log_index_prefix variable (defaulting to "flog-*") and automatically sets "@timestamp" as the time field. Documentation has been updated to reflect that the first-login manual setup is no longer required for the default log indices.

+ Automated the creation of the default OpenSearch Dashboards
+ index pattern. During deployment or reconfiguration, Kolla
+ Ansible now automatically provisions an index pattern based
+ on the ``opensearch_log_index_prefix`` (defaulting to
+ ``flog-*``) with ``@timestamp`` configured as the time field.
+ This removes the need for operators to manually configure the
+ initial index pattern upon their first login to the Dashboards
+ UI.
