[Security Solution][Detections] Handle dupes when processing threshol…

…d rules (#83062)

* Fix threshold rule synthetic signal generation

* Use top_hits aggregation

* Find signals and aggregate over search terms

* Exclude dupes

* Fixes to algorithm

* Sync timestamps with events/signals

* Add timestampOverride

* Revert changes in signal creation

* Simplify query, return 10k buckets

* Account for when threshold.field is not supplied

* Ensure we're getting the last event when threshold.field is not provided

* Add missing import

* Handle case where threshold field not supplied

* Fix type errors

* Handle non-ECS fields

* Regorganize

* Address comments

* Fix type error

* Add unit test for buildBulkBody on threshold results

* Add threshold_count back to mapping (and deprecate)

* Timestamp fixes
