This adds the 8.11.0 Fleet & Elastic Agent Release Notes:

NOTE: For Fleet I've added a link to the Kibana Release Notes. I think this makes more sense than duplicating the entries in the Kibana Guide and Fleet & Agent Guide, especially if edits to the entries in this PR aren't synced back with the Kibana release notes. Lately the entries have some differences between the two books and I think that could cause some confusion.

Closes: #578

Deferring to the Kibana release notes is fine with me 🚀

I'll hold off on merging this since we may need to add a breaking change.

@cmacknz
I added the following in 82e69b7. Do you think it captures the breaking change correctly?

(I'll remove it if the release is postponed.)

 - kind: breaking-change
      summary: Enable compression by default for Elasticsearch outputs
      description: 'The default compression level for Elasticsearch outputs is changing from 0 to 1. On typical workloads this is expected to decrease network data volume by 70-80%, while increasing cpu use by 20-25% and ingestion time by 10%. The previous behavior can be restored by adding ''compression_level: 0'' to the output configuration.'

The commit for BC9 is https://github.com/elastic/elastic-agent/commits/3c8be7201bbf4e3f91d7b56de9ff285c386a7804 so David is correct that elastic/elastic-agent#3626 did not make 8.11 release.
