Update elastic/beats and drop removed otelconsumer import (#6725)

### What
Bump `github.com/elastic/beats/v7` to the latest `main` commit
(`a6d4c42eeb5a`) and fix the build break it surfaces by removing an
obsolete blank import in `cmd/root.go`.

### Why
The automated beats-bump (`update-beats` workflow) has been failing at
`go mod tidy`:

```
github.com/elastic/cloudbeat/cmd imports
    github.com/elastic/beats/v7/x-pack/libbeat/outputs/otelconsumer:
    module github.com/elastic/beats/v7@latest found (v7.17.29), but does not contain package
```

beats elastic/beats#49929 ("Move otelconsumer out of x-pack") relocated
the package (`x-pack/libbeat/outputs/otelconsumer` →
`libbeat/otel/otelconsumer`) **and removed its
`outputs.RegisterType("otelconsumer", …)` registration** — it is no
longer a named output type and is now wired internally by the OTel
output controller. cloudbeat's only reference was a side-effect blank
import in `cmd/root.go`, so bumping beats past that move broke `go mod
tidy`.

No beat imports the package anymore and cloudbeat uses no symbol from
it, so the blank import is simply removed (not repointed — the new
package has no registration `init()`).

### How
- `cmd/root.go`: drop `_
"github.com/elastic/beats/v7/x-pack/libbeat/outputs/otelconsumer"`.
- `go.mod` / `go.sum`: `go get github.com/elastic/beats/v7@a6d4c42eeb5a`
+ `go mod tidy`.

The bump bot only edits `go.mod`/`go.sum`, so it cannot apply the source
fix itself; landing this unblocks future automated bumps.

### Verification (local, real toolchain)
- `go mod tidy` → exit 0
- `go build ./...` with `GOEXPERIMENT=jsonv2` → exit 0, clean
- No references remain to the other paths #49929 moved (`otelctx`,
`otelmap`).
