[Timelion] Known limitation when multiple index patterns / data views with the same name exist and runtime fields

[lucabelluccini]

Currently, it is known that scripted fields and runtime fields are only supported in metric and split arguments of Timelion (as per #9022).

There's another limitation, very edge case, when on Kibana:

• We are attempting to use scripted metrics or runtime fields for metric or split arguments of Timelion
• More than one data view / index pattern are defined and match the index argument of Timelion and only one of them defines the scripted metric or runtime field

Example

• Install the sample web logs data set (it has a hour_of_day runtime field)
• Create a second data view hitting kibana_sample_data_logs (it is possible to create more than one data view with the same pattern in recent 8.x version)
• Create a Timelion expression such as .es(index=kibana_sample_data_logs,metric=cardinality:hour_of_day)

You'll notice the visualization will flap from 0 to visualizing the actual data.

It's partially critical as there's no warning or error shown.
It would be nice to at least notify the user with a toast message that data might be incorrect in case more than one index pattern / data view is being hit
