The memory shown on FleetUI for an Elastic Agent is inconsistent with the memory show on the _[Elastic Agent] Agent metrics_ dashboard.

### Event Original

_No response_

### What did you do?

I looked the Elastic Agent memory consumption on FleetUI and on the _[Elastic Agent] Agent metrics_.

It seems Elastic Defend is missing to be taken into account on FleetUI. However there might be other factors affecting it as well.

An inconsistency on the memory usage for the Elastic Agent

### What did you expect to see?

The idea is to ensure a consistent report for the main use-cases and platforms:
