You shouldn't use Elasticsearch's anonymous access to provide access to Kibana
without requiring credentials. Instead, you should use Kibana's anonymous
authentication feature. However, the Elasticsearch anonymous access tends to be
more popular in search results.

This adds a brief tip that directs users to Kibana's anonymous authentication
feature.

Closes #73022
