Proposed commit message
This PR (similar to #43480) ensures that the Metricbeat
mssqlmodule code is only compiled in non-FIPS builds of Metricbeat and is, therefore, unavailable in FIPS-capable Metricbeat artifacts.The module indirectly depends on the Azure Go SDK. The SDK's code uses the
golang.org/x/crypto/pkcs12package, which is not FIPS-compliant, and the SDK doesn't plan to offer a way to disable the use of this package at compile time (see Azure/azure-sdk-for-go#24336).As such, we have little choice but to exclude the
mssqlmodule from FIPS-capable Metricbeat builds.The
doc.gofiles added to every metricset in themssqlmodule are to prevent compile-time errors like so:Checklist

FIPS-capable artifacts of Metricbeat will not contain the
mssqlmodule.This is an automatic backport of pull request #44890 done by [Mergify](https://mergify.com).
