[Alerts][License] Bypass the license check for a pre-configured alerts. #85638

Based on the conversation

Just to add to the conversation, Stack Monitoring also has the concept of certain alerts being only available in gold/platinum; however, we are currently creating these alerts "out of the box" (since this concept doesn't exist yet, we are creating these when the user first visits the Stack Monitoring UI) and I'm worried about applying rules for alert creation for a data point that can change over time. For example, if they are on the Basic license when they first visit the Stack Monitoring UI, then upgrade to Gold and don't revisit the Stack Monitoring UI, any gold-gated alerts will not exist. This might be something to consider when implementing #59813 cc @mikecote

@chrisronline good point. I think for pre-configured alerts, we should bypass the license check for those and handle it differently (ex: execution time). There's ongoing discussion about how we should handle expired licenses and the existing alerts. It seemed disabling the alert was the best option, but maybe not? thinking about your use case where you'd just want the alerts to "resume". This may be the same expectation with other alerts.

we should find a specific way of handling pre-configured alerts license check.
