[EuiTable] Add horizontal scrolling on overflow when tableLayout is set to auto #9392

Description

Summary

We need to improve how EuiTable handles long content to ensure the rendered information is easy to read and not squished, as it often happens in smaller resolutions and denser tables.

This issue is part of the ongoing tables sweep initiative.

Acceptance criteria

  • EuiTable should have overflow-inline configured to automatically show the scroll bar when table content cannot fit the available space horizontally. This property should only be applied when tableLayout prop is set to auto (it defaults to fixed at the time of writing this issue)
  • EuiBasicTable and EuiInMemoryTable, which use EuiTable internally, should also have this functionality
