Description

Updates APM docs to reflect changes related to the Elasticsearch apm-data plugin.

Here's my understanding of how this change will impact the docs (please correct me if I'm wrong!):

1️⃣ When a user sets up the APM Server binary, they used to have to install the APM integration. Now users using the APM Server binary shouldn't have to install or work with the APM integration at all because the functionality that the APM integration was providing to the APM Server binary users is now built into Elasticsearch (i.e. the apm-data plugin) (if I'm understanding elastic/apm-server#11267 correctly).

2️⃣ When a user sets up a Fleet-managed APM Server, how the APM integration works behind the scenes changes with the addition of the Elasticsearch apm-data plugin, but the workflow for getting a Fleet-managed APM Server initially set up will not change so the docs on getting set up don't need to be updated.

3️⃣ Users using either the APM Server binary or Fleet-managed APM Server will need to know about how the Elasticsearch apm-data plugin works and how the APM integration's role has changed if/when they are customizing index templates, component templates, or ingest pipelines.

4️⃣ In addition to updates in the Observability guide, the integration docs probably also need to be updated.
