Disable host.* fields by default for CrowdStrike module #19132

What does this PR do?

For the CrowdStrike module when data is forwarded to Filebeat from another host/device you don't want Filebeat to add host. So by default this modules add a forwarded tag to events. If you configure the module to not include the forwarded tag (e.g. var.tags: [my_tag]) then Filebeat will add the host.* fields.

Why is it important?

We want Filebeat to follow Elastic Common Schema. And setting host with the correct value is part of that. By setting (or not setting host) we can better interpret events. Without this change the Filebeat host is being attributed as the source of Checkpoint firewall events.

This logs was already out of sync, that's why there is such a big diff. I ran the update from a clean master and it produced a diff.
