1. [RAC] [TGrid] Implements cell actions in the TGrid (elastic#107771) …

   ## Summary
   
   This PR implements cell actions in the `TGrid`, rendering them via `EuiDataGrid`, per the `Before` and `After` screenshots below:
   
   ### Before
   
   Users previously hovered over a draggable field to view and trigger cell actions:

   _Above: legacy `TGrid` cell action rendering_
   
   ### After
   
   Cell actions are now rendered via `EuiDataGrid` cell actions:

   _Above: new `TGrid` cell action rendering via `EuiDataGrid`_
   
   ## Technical Details
   
   Every instance of the `TGrid` on a page can specify its own set of cell actions via `defaultCellActions` when calling the `timelines.getTGrid()` function to create an instance.
   
   For example, the Observability Alerts `TGrid` is initialized in with a default set of actions in `x-pack/plugins/observability/public/pages/alerts/alerts_table_t_grid.tsx`, as shown in the code below:
   
   ```ts
         {timelines.getTGrid<'standalone'>({
           type: 'standalone',
           columns,
           deletedEventIds: [],
           defaultCellActions: getDefaultCellActions({ enableFilterActions: false }), // <-- defaultCellActions
           // ...
       </>
   ```
   
   The type of the `defaultCellActions` is:
   
   ```ts
   defaultCellActions?: TGridCellAction[];
   ```
   
   and the definition of `TGridCellAction` is in `x-pack/plugins/timelines/common/types/timeline/columns/index.tsx`:
   
   ```ts
   /**
    * A `TGridCellAction` function accepts `data`, where each row of data is
    * represented as a `TimelineNonEcsData[]`. For example, `data[0]` would
    * contain a `TimelineNonEcsData[]` with the first row of data.
    *
    * A `TGridCellAction` returns a function that has access to all the
    * `EuiDataGridColumnCellActionProps`, _plus_ access to `data`,
    *  which enables code like the following example to be written:
    *
    * Example:
    * ```
    * ({ data }: { data: TimelineNonEcsData[][] }) => ({ rowIndex, columnId, Component }) => {
    *   const value = getMappedNonEcsValue({
    *     data: data[rowIndex], // access a specific row's values
    *     fieldName: columnId,
    *   });
    *
    *   return (
    *     <Component onClick={() => alert(`row ${rowIndex} col ${columnId} has value ${value}`)} iconType="heart">
    *       {'Love it'}
    *      </Component>
    *   );
    * };
    * ```
    */
   export type TGridCellAction = ({
     browserFields,
     data,
   }: {
     browserFields: BrowserFields;
     /** each row of data is represented as one TimelineNonEcsData[] */
     data: TimelineNonEcsData[][];
   }) => (props: EuiDataGridColumnCellActionProps) => ReactNode;
   ```
   
   For example, the following `TGridCellAction[]` defines the `Copy to clipboard` action for the Observability Alerts table in `x-pack/plugins/observability/public/pages/alerts/default_cell_actions.tsx`:
   
   ```ts
   /** actions common to all cells (e.g. copy to clipboard) */
   const commonCellActions: TGridCellAction[] = [
     ({ data }: { data: TimelineNonEcsData[][] }) => ({ rowIndex, columnId, Component }) => {
       const { timelines } = useKibanaServices();
   
       const value = getMappedNonEcsValue({
         data: data[rowIndex],
         fieldName: columnId,
       });
   
       return (
         <>
           {timelines.getHoverActions().getCopyButton({
             Component,
             field: columnId,
             isHoverAction: false,
             ownFocus: false,
             showTooltip: false,
             value,
           })}
         </>
       );
     },
   ];
   ```
   
   Note that an _implementation_ of the copy to clipboard cell action, including the button, is available for both the Observability and Security solutions to use via `timelines.getHoverActions().getCopyButton()`, (and both solutions use it in this PR), but there's no requirement to use that specific implementation of the copy action.
   
   ### Security Solution cell actions
   
   All previously-available hover actions in the Security Solution are now available as cell actions, i.e.:
   
   - Filter for value
   - Filter out value
   - Add to timeline investigation
   - Show Top `<field>` (only enabled for some data types)
   - Copy to clipboard
   
   ### Observability cell actions
   
   In this PR:
   
   - Only the `Copy to clipboard` cell action is enabled by default in the Observability Alerts table
   - The `Filter for value` and `Filter out value` cell actions may be enabled in the `Observability` solution by changing a single line of code, (setting `enableFilterActions` to true), on the following line in `x-pack/plugins/observability/public/pages/alerts/alerts_table_t_grid.tsx`:
   
   ```js
   defaultCellActions: getDefaultCellActions({ enableFilterActions: false }), // <-- set this to `true` to enable the filter actions
   ```
   
   `enableFilterActions` is set to `false` in this PR because the Observability Alerts page's search bar, defined in `x-pack/plugins/observability/public/pages/alerts/alerts_search_bar.tsx`:
   
   ```ts
     return (
       <SearchBar
         indexPatterns={dynamicIndexPattern}
         placeholder={i18n.translate('xpack.observability.alerts.searchBarPlaceholder', {
           defaultMessage: 'kibana.alert.evaluation.threshold > 75',
         })}
         query={{ query: query ?? '', language: queryLanguage }}
         // ...
       />
   ````
   
   must be integrated with a `filterManager` to display the filters. A `filterManager` instance may be obtained in the Observability solution via the following boilerplate:
   
   ```ts
     const {
       services: {
         data: {
           query: { filterManager },
         },
       },
     } = useKibana<ObservabilityPublicPluginsStart>();
   ```
   
   ## Desk testing
   
   To desk test this PR, you must enable feature flags in the Observability and Security Solution:
   
   - To desk test the `Observability > Alerts` page, add the following settings to `config/kibana.dev.yml`:
   
   ```
   xpack.observability.unsafe.cases.enabled: true
   xpack.observability.unsafe.alertingExperience.enabled: true
   xpack.ruleRegistry.write.enabled: true
   ```
   
   - To desk test the TGrid in the following Security Solution, edit `x-pack/plugins/security_solution/common/experimental_features.ts` and in the `allowedExperimentalValues` section set:
   
   ```typescript
   tGridEnabled: true,
   ```
