docs: note multi-select and pre-selection in ES|QL data source browser (#6188)
## Summary Follow-up to #6082, which addressed parent issue #5701 but didn't explicitly close the two sibling issues #6068 and #6072. This PR adds the two behavioral details from #6072 that weren't covered: - the data source browser supports **multi-select** (add/remove several sources in one session) - sources already present in the query appear **pre-selected** These are the only details from #6068 and #6072 worth documenting; other behaviors (replace/deselect for the fields browser, no-preselection, formatting-preserving inserts) are either self-evident from the UI or already implied by the existing wording. ## Resolves Closes #6068 Closes #6072 Made with [Cursor](https://cursor.com)

When you write a query, the {{esql}} editor includes two interactive browsers that help you find available data sources and field names:
100100

101-
- **Data source browser**: lists the data sources of the following types that you can query: **Alias**, **Index**, **Integration**, **Lookup Index**, **Stream**, and **Timeseries**. Selections are inserted into the `FROM` or `TS` command and existing sources stay preserved. When the query starts with `TS`, only time series data sources are listed.
