Working this TODO is not part of this PR. There's a possibility the element with the id will not be rendered initially, which means we need to have a DOM mutation observer on the flyout content and a new action in the flyout manager reducer to update the title at arbitrary times.

The changes look great and work as expected. I tested the hideTitle prop in Storybook and was able to control the visibility as described.
I'm going to approve this PR now despite the two unresolved comments. Feel free to apply the suggested changes or just skip them for now!

Summary
Closes #9148
EuiFlyoutMenuPropshideTitleprop.The default is
truefor "main" system flyouts,falsefor everything elseWhy are we making this change?
This fixes an issue with the initial Flyout System implementation, where "main" flyouts have a title in the menu bar, which is wrong:
EuiFlyoutHeaderis not deprecated and the "main" flyout UI should use it for a heading.On the other hand, "child" flyouts are a new concept and these types of flyouts are designed to have their title text shown in the top menu bar. This makes sense because "main" and "child" flyouts serve different purposes, and their menu bars should also serve different purposes - the main menu bar shows the history controls and not a title; the child menu bar shows the title and not the history controls.

Impact to users
Before this fix, it was assumed that flyout designs would change from using an
EuiFlyoutHeaderinto a design where the title is in the menu bar - even for "main" system flyouts. Since that assumption was wrong, this fix means there will be an easier migration path from non-managed flyouts into managed flyouts.QA
