Description

**Describe the enhancement:**

VerticalPodAutoscaler (VPA) in recommendation mode makes it easy to determine what you should possibly set Kubernetes resources requests/limits to. It would be nice to be able to collect these recommendations into Elastic

**Describe a specific use case for the enhancement or feature:**

I want to track historical recommendations of pods/containers based on VPA's actions.
