[APM] Technical debt

[sorenlouv]

Technical debt in APM UI:

• Re-think routing, link handling and url params
• Single, standardized config and types for charts (response time, throughout (rpm), breakdown and metrics)
• Get rid of minimumBucketSize and bucketTargetCount from config. There is no need for them to be configurable. The current numbers are also arbitrary.

Dependencies

The following dependencies are especially important for APM to keep up to date.

Runtime dependencies:

• react, react-dom
• styled-components
• react-syntax-highlighter (plan is to move to codesearch)
• react-vis (plan is to move to EUI vis)

Dev dependencies:

• typescript
• jest
• jest-styled-components
• react-testing-library

Re: "Replace KUI component with EUI: Breadcrumbs" ... it sounds like there are some substantial changes coming in Kibana 7 with how Kibana builds the top of the page/breadcrumbs etc and the available API for that for x-pack plugins. We may want to leave what we have for now and revisit when that becomes more clear.

I've removed the charts task, it is already here: #18145

Respect Kibana time format setting: Currently APM doesn't respect the user's Kibana settings regarding date/time formats. Most places that shows time are hardcoded to 24-hour format.

Will this make it into 6.5?

[makwarth]

It'd close #18153

Closes #18153.

Will this make it into 6.5?

I'll create an issue, and then we should prioritize next week.
