[Request]: Change "APM" to "Applications" in topics that describe how to navigate the Observability app

[dedemorton]

Description

elastic/kibana#188409 changes "APM" to "Applications" in the Observability nav for 8.16.

In the docs, we need to make sure any menu paths that refer to this option are updated...plus any screen captures that show the side nav (hopefully we don't have any of those, but we should check).

A couple questions:

• In Serverless, we use the term Applications UI instead of APM UI because the side navigation used Applications. Should I also update references to the APM UI in the stateful docs? Thoughts @bmorelli25?

• Will the cross-solution side navigation also change from APM to Applications? Right now it looks like it still uses APM (see image below).

@kpatticha do you know if there are plans to update this throughout the product?
