The most recent version of antlr is now at 4.10.1, which includes some nice to have features such as an option for case insensitivity in the lexer rules.

The current version used in the TS runtime is 4.9.1

## Summary

Fixes #166242
This is a PR to use an higher level AST instead of the raw ParserTree to
compute all Monaco features for ES|QL.

## Grammar

This PR drops the existing grammar in favour of the ES one, which a tiny
tweak in order to support any case for the query.
I think we could fully adopt the ES grammar without tweaks once [this
issue](tunnelvisionlabs/antlr4ts#535) is
resolved in the antlr4ts dependency.

The adoption of the ES grammar helped also to resolve #166173 .

## AST generator

The AST is a subset of the ESQL grammar parser tree, which is easier to
navigate.
Tests will be provided to the tool in order to test that the tool can
translate even the craziest query string.
**Note** that this is not preventing the query to be submitted to ES:
even if a validation case fails here or the AST fails to translate part
of the expression ES will always have the last word about error and
warnings, which will be promptly notified to the user.

Commands coverage:
* `ROW`
  * [x] `ROW a=1`
  * [x] `ROW a=1, b=1`
* `FROM`
  * [x] `FROM a`
  * [x] `FROM a, b`
  * [x] `FROM a [METADATA ...]`
  * [x] `FROM a, b [METADATA ...]` 
    * `METADATA` won't have indentifiers yet
* `SHOW`
  * [x] `INFO`
  * [x] `FUNCTIONS`
* `EVAL`
  * [x] `EVAL a = b + 1`
  * [x] `EVAL a = fnA( ... ) + fnB( ... )`
  * [x] `EVAL b + 1`
  * [x] `EVAL fnA( ... ) + fnB( ... )`
* `STATS`
  *  [x] `STATS a = fn(b) + fn(c)`
  *  [x] `STATS a = fn(b) + fn(c) BY group`
  *  [x] `STATS a = fn(b) + fn(c) BY groupA, groupB`
  *  [x] `STATS fn(b) + fn(c)`
  *  [x] `STATS fn(b) + fn(c) BY groupA`
  *  [x] `STATS fn(b) + fn(c) BY groupA, groupB`
* [x] `WHERE`
* [x] `LIMIT` 
* [x] `KEEP`
* [x] `PROJECT`
* [x] `DROP`
* `RENAME`. 
  * [x] `RENAME a as b`  
  * [x] `RENAME `a + 1 / 5` as `myField`
* [x] `DISSECT`
* [x] `GROK`
* [x] `ENRICH`
* [x] `MV_EXPAND`
* [x] `SORT`

Collect all user defined variables
  * [x] Basic support for assigned variables (i.e. `eval a = ...`)
  * [x] Field type shadowing with assignment
  * [x] Advanced support for non-assigned cases? (i.e. `eval a + 1`)

## Validation

With this new approach it would be possible to catch most of warnings
and errors while typing, preventing users to submit invalid queries to
ES.
Note that here the validation function can detect multiple errors and
warnings at once, while ES only returns one error at the time -
improving the current sub-optimal editing experience provided.

## Autocomplete

Using the same provider here to provide better contextual suggestions.
First example giving better suggestions (filtered field based on types
and functions based on returned type):

* Commands
  * [x] Show all commands on empty string
  * [x] Show all but source commands after first pipe
  * [x] Suggest option at the right moment

## Hover

# Things not covered in this PR

* Load function definitions from `SHOW FUNCTIONS` at language bootstrap
* Make `validate` function an independent module?
* Provide a "formal" validation option (i.e. mute `Unknown <entity>
[...]` messages)
* Have `autocomplete` on par with the current state in `main`

## Validation cases not covered yet

* `... | eval var = 1 year` => ❌ it should report an error
* `... | eval 1 + [1, 2, 3]` => ⚠️ it should report a null warning
  * same applies for `-`, `*`, `/`, `%`
* any location aware field/variable check
* `... | stats a = avg(field) | keep b` => ❌ `b` should be reported as
unknown
  * `... | keep a | eval b` => ❌  `b` should be reported as unknown
* `... | rename a as b, d as c, c as b` => ❌ `c` should be reported as
unknown
* `... | enrich policy on fieldFromEnrich` => ❌ `fieldFromEnrich` is not
reported as unknown
* `... | eval a = round(b), b = round(a)` => ❌ `b` should be reported an
unknown
* `from ... [metadata <list of meta fields>` => ❌ `meta fields` won't be
validated as there's currently no available API to get them

## Hover

Advanced usage of hover feature.
