Cherry-pick of PR #22634 to 7.x branch. Original message:
What does this PR do?
Cloud Foundry integrations are sending some values as they are received
from the Firehose, some of these values can be floats with non-numeric
values (NaN/Inf), that are not supported by JSON and Elasticsearch.
I haven't been able to reproduce this, but there are only two places
where Metricbeat can receive non-numeric floats.
Add defensive code to avoid sending these values to the outputs:
container
metricset, remove cpu percentages with non-numeric values.value
metricset, drop whole events with non-numeric values.Add some helpers and mocks to be able to test the module with specific envelopes.
Why is it important?
Sending non-numeric float values to some outputs is problematic.
There were only integration tests for this module, these tests are not executed in CI yet.
With the added helpers we can test the module without needing a CF environment.
