Pull request overview
This PR standardizes Grafana timeseries panel rendering across the Harvest dashboards, primarily targeting consistent line/point styling, and adds a repository-level test to enforce those defaults going forward.
Changes:
- Update many dashboards to set
fieldConfig.defaults.custom.showPointsto"never"(from"auto") and align variouslineWidthvalues to1. - Remove/adjust a few panel-specific overrides while refactoring visualization defaults.
- Add a Go test (
TestTimeSeriesDefaults) to validate timeseries defaults across all dashboards.

grafana/dashboards/cmode/disk.json:2721
- The override for the HDD Reads Replaced series no longer forces bar rendering (custom.drawStyle="bars", fillOpacity=100, lineWidth=0) and now only adjusts unit/axis label. This will change the panel visualization from bars to a line/area, which may reduce readability for an RPS-like metric. If bars are still desired, reintroduce the drawStyle/fill/lineWidth override and adjust the new timeseries-defaults test to allow lineWidth=0 when drawStyle is "bars".
