Research direction

Start with x-pack/filebeat/input/unifiedlogs/input_test.go, especially the checks around lines 77, 254, and 259, and review PR 45124 for the failing TestInput/Default_stream case. Reproduce the failure on macOS 15 and compare it with a local run; done means the test passes reliably in CI without the empty output or timeout failures.
