[Proposal][Multiple Data Sources] Introduce Dashboards Tour With Multi Data Sources

[BionIT]

Overview

With 2.14 and 2.15 releases, we introduced multi data source into 13 dashboards plugins and feature anywhere and see them live in https://playground.opensearch.org/app/home#/

• 2.14: [Meta][2.14] Support Multiple Data Source in OpenSearch Dashboards Plugins #5870
• 2.15: [Meta][2.15] Support Multiple Data Source in OpenSearch Dashboards Plugins #6596

In order to introduce the new experience to the community, we published blog(https://opensearch.org/blog/Top-3-Scenarios-Where-Managing-Multiple-Clusters-with-One-OpenSearch-Dashboards-is-a-Life-Saver/) and tutorial (https://opensearch.org/docs/latest/dashboards/management/multi-data-sources/#using-multiple-data-sources-with-external-dashboards-plugins).

We had been receiving feedback about the new capability and to better serve our dashboards users, we propose to introduce a new tour feature, which can be enabled or turned off. Its main purpose is to guide our users to interact with this new multi data source experience when enabled.

Alternative

Better documentation/video demo

Study indicates that people remember approximately 10% of what they hear, 20% of what they read, and 80% of what they see and do. For users who interact with the dashboards most of the time, the best way to learn the new experience might not start with reading the documentation again, but to actually by start to interact with it.

YES! I've been asking for this for years!

Awesome. It's this proposal going to be implement a service that any plugin can onboard to and have their own spotlight feature?
