…stic#21124)

Previously if Elasticsearch was unavailable in the Kibana default distribution,
you would be prompted with a disabled login screen stating "Login is currently
disabled. Administrators should consult the Kibana logs for more details". This
was rather confusing for users who have a Basic license.

This now provides the user with a screen providing only the required
messaging.

Additionally, if you were using Kibana with a Basic license with an OSS
distribution of Elasticsearch, you would see the same disabled login
screen as mentioned previously.

This also separates the messaging there to provide clear details for the
user to resolve the issue.
