Cherry-pick of PR #23012 to 7.x branch. Original message:
What does this PR do?
There can always be reason to disable additional metadata. Having flexibility is nice to have. https://github.com/elastic/beats/pull/22189/files#diff-795a7b218ad6ff27d43bc453ecce7984c3d816537b1afc9cfc9000d5d574119eR181 introduced an issue of pulling all node metadata even if running on a daemonset. This PR fixes that behavior
Why is it important?
we dont see the need for each metric to have all labels when being ingested. the lack of node name being passed ot the node watcher causes too much churn on the API server on large clusters.
