[metricbeat] beats xpack module creates a single datastream per service monitored #29657

Description

@stuartnelson3

When configured with a beat module and xpack.enabled: true (https://github.com/elastic/beats/blob/master/metricbeat/modules.d/beat-xpack.yml.disabled), recent builds of metricbeat from the 8.0 branch create daily datastreams, eg. .monitoring-beats-8-mb-2021.12.29 and then .monitoring-beats-8-mb-2021.12.30.

Can metricbeat be updated to only write to a single datastream per thing monitored, ie., the naming would change to .monitoring-beats-8-mb?
