Description

@legrego

The description for the kibana_system role has fallen out of date with its current permission set, and should be updated to better reflect reality.

"Grants access necessary for the Kibana system user to read from and write to the Kibana indices, "
+ "manage index templates and tokens, and check the availability of the Elasticsearch cluster. "
+ "It also permits activating, searching, and retrieving user profiles, "
+ "as well as updating user profile data for the kibana-* namespace. "
+ "Additionally, this role grants read access to the .monitoring-* indices "
+ "and read and write access to the .reporting-* indices. "
+ "Note: This role should not be assigned to users as the granted permissions may change between releases."

Adding Team:Security label, but I expect @elastic/kibana-security to own this. We do not have our own team label in this repo.
