Identify indexes with conflicting field types #7661

Description

@robin13

Occasionally it can happen: you have an index pattern (typically something like "logstash-*") and one field has a type conflict: in one index it is a string, and in another an integer... and then you start searching: which is the bad index? Where do I need to start re-indexing (or deleting) to get things right again in Kibana?

Would it be possible to help the user identify the conflicts? e.g. a mouseover which list all the indexes in which the field occurs, and the respective types?
