Support added for Kibana Platform plugins

edit

via #74604

Vega visualizations without $schema property no longer supported

edit

Previously, if you did not provide the $schema property, the default value was set and hardcoded in the Vega code. The visualization was then rendered with a warning message. This introduced difficulties when updating the version of the Vega library.

Now all Vega specs must contain the $schema param. In no $schema param exists, an error message is returned. Refer to the Vega docs for more information about this property.
