Summary
This PR addresses #7621 with the following change:
explore-analyze/visualize/custom-visualizations-with-vega.md: Add an ES|QL data source limitations subsection at the end of the Writing ES|QL queries in Vega section. It documents that in 9.4 the dashboard query bar, filters, and controls don't recognize the fields queried by Vega or Vega-Lite ES|QL panels, and that later versions recognize those fields.Details
The behavior change comes from elastic/kibana#277120: Vega ES|QL panels now resolve an ad-hoc data view from their query, so the dashboard's unified search recognizes the queried index and its fields.
Framed as a lifted limitation, per reviewer preference, so the section has a clear home if related ES|QL-in-Vega limitations are added or resolved later.
Version scoping: ES|QL data sources in Vega shipped in 9.4 (elastic/kibana#247186), so the limitation only ever applied in 9.4. The note is tagged
{applies_to}stack: ga =9.4to scope the badge to that single version. Serverless is evergreen and already has the fix, so it is not tagged.Resolves
Closes #7621
