My concern is that even with #8941 merged the dataset name here will still be system.host but should be system.audit.host. Do you want to keep it host as the name for the config?

Maybe we need a way to specify a custom dataset name? {module}.{metricset} will be weird for Auditbeat:
- auditd will be
auditd.auditd - file_integrity will be
file_integrity.file

++ on introducing a config / init option for it.

+1. I'd say we merge this PR and make another one for the dataset?

Namespaces all Auditbeat system module metricsets to `system.audit` to avoid any potential field clashes with Metricbeat.

So far, the system module has been using the top-level
systemobject to store many of its fields (e.g.system.user.group.name), setting it up for potential clashes with the Metricbeat system module, which occupies the same top-level object.This change namespaces all metricsets to the
system.auditobject (e.g. nowsystem.audit.user.group.name), thus avoiding any potential field clashes - now and in the future.Auditbeat and Metricbeat are still using the same module and metricset names in their configurations.
