Feature in Kibana GUI that allows you to cancel a query (task management).

[avmkem]

In addition to the task API, we would like a feature in Kibana where you can click a button in the search bar if you want to cancel a search you have just set to run.

Would like for it to cancel the query from running in elastic to prevent unnecessary use of cluster resources, especially if the query that has been run is an inefficient one.

With the addition of elastic/elasticsearch#27764 in 6.2, it should be a bit easier to introduce the ability to cancel queries from the query bar. Thoughts @AlonaNadler @Bargs?

Yep I think so
