Description

__Steps to reproduce:__
List the minimal actions needed to reproduce the behavior.

1. Start influxdb, create bucket, add measurements with numerical data fields
2. Create a check in the alerts page on one of the numerical data fields

__Expected behavior:__

On the define query page, I expect to be able to set the 'WINDOW PERIOD' field for the aggregate function, as is possible when querying data on the 'Expore Data' page.

__Actual behavior:__

I cannot set the 'WINDOW PERIOD' at all. It is stuck on it's auto value and greyed out

__Environment info:__

Linux 5.8.0-34-generic x86_64 (docker image)
**Host machine:** Linux 5.8.0-34-generic x86_64 (VM)
InfluxDB 2.0.3 (git: fe04d346df) build_date: 2020-12-15T01:00:16Z

Research direction

Reproduce the issue through the Alerts page by creating a check with numerical data, then inspect the Define Query page and compare its aggregate-function controls with the Explore Data page. Done means the WINDOW PERIOD field can be set instead of remaining greyed out at its automatic value.
