Make Pod health dashboard available to users

Reuben Pereira requested to merge 218649-add-pod-health-dashboard into master

What does this MR do?

Add a new out of the box (OOTB) dashboard for monitoring the health of pods in a K8s cluster. It displays CPU, memory, network and disk metrics. The dashboard yaml already exists in Gitlab, but is not visible to users.

This MR:

  • Makes the dashboard visible in the dashboard selector on the metrics dashboard page.
  • Adds a templating variable to the dashboard yaml. The variable adds a pod selector to the dashboard, which allows users to select which pod's metrics are displayed in the dashboard.
  • Sort dashboards alphabetically in the dashboard selector.

Issue: #218649 (closed)
