[9.4] Update elastic/beats and align beats-bump automation (#6728)

### What
Backport the dedicated beats-bump automation to `9.4` and bump
`elastic/beats` to the latest `9.4` commit, fixing the build/lint breaks
it surfaces.

### Why
The `update-beats` workflow (on `main`) checks out each active branch
and runs `updatecli apply --config
.ci/updatecli/updatecli.d/update-beats.yml`. That config is read from
the **checked-out branch**, but `9.4` still had the old config
(`requiredEnv "GIT_BRANCH"` + `scms`/`actions`), while the new workflow
sets `BRANCH_NAME` and runs `--commit=false`. So the `update-beats
(9.4)` job failed at config load:

```
template: cfg:3:32: executing "cfg" at <requiredEnv "GIT_BRANCH">: error calling requiredEnv: no value found for environment variable GIT_BRANCH
```

### How
- **`.ci/updatecli/updatecli.d/update-beats.yml`**: replace with the
file-edit-only config the new workflow expects.
- **`.github/workflows/updatecli.yml`**: remove `beats` from the
matrices (now owned by the dedicated workflow).
- **`cmd/root.go`**: drop the `x-pack/libbeat/outputs/otelconsumer`
blank import — beats moved it out of x-pack and de-registered it as an
output type (elastic/beats#49929), which is present on the `9.4` beats
branch.
- **`internal/launcher/launcher.go`**: replace deprecated
`Manager.Start` with `PreInit`/`PostInit` (staticcheck SA1019).
- **`go.mod`/`go.sum`**: bump to beats `9.4` tip;
**`cloudbeat.reference.yml`**: regenerated (autodiscover `labels.dedot`
default flipped to `true`).

### Verification (local, real toolchain)
- `go mod tidy`, `go build ./...` (`GOEXPERIMENT=jsonv2`), `staticcheck
-checks SA1019 ./internal/launcher/`, `go test ./internal/launcher/` →
all pass.
