Description
## Summary
Dashboard authors with Agent Builder access can now start chat from two places in the dashboard editor. An empty dashboard offers editable prompt suggestions such as Create a dashboard for my metrics and Monitor my logs, while the Add panel flyout offers Create with chat; each option opens a new conversation without sending the prompt automatically.
**Why this needs docs:** The PR adds visible dashboard creation entry points and a new workflow that the current dashboard and Agent Builder pages do not identify.

- **What the docs say:** You can also create dashboards through natural language chat with Elastic Agent Builder agents. Describe what you want to visualize and the agent builds a dashboard with ES|QL-powered visualization panels.
- **What to add:** Extend the existing workflow to explain that users with Agent Builder access can select a prompt or Open chat on an empty dashboard, or select Add panel, then Create with chat; note that a selected prompt opens an editable draft and is not sent automatically. Applies from 9.6.0 and in serverless.
