## Summary
When we switched to use `Combobox` we were no longer able to add custom
values for our dropdowns, and this prevented users from using regexp
values for `group`, `host`, `proxy` etc. This PR adds
`createCustomValue` flag so that any custom value can be entered into
the dropdowns.
## Detailed summary
- Make use of `Combobox`'s `createCustomValues` so that wherever
necessary, users are able to enter regex values.

## Why
For users to be able to use regexp, and any custom value in our
dropdowns.
## How to test
For all query types where dropdowns are used and user configurable (i.e.
group, host, proxy, application) start typing a value that does not
already exist in the dropdown. You should see an option to `Use custom
value`

thanks for the testing and call out @christos-diamantis
## Summary
Throughout Zabbix we did not have a uniform UI - some drop-down were
using `Select` others `Combobox` others a custom one that we created.
Some had placeholders and others did not. This PR aims to standardize
our Zabbix UI across our query, variable and config editors
## Detailed summary
- Migrate from `Select` to `Combobox` -> `Select` component is
deprecated
- Migrate from `HorizontalGroup` to `Stack` -> `HorizontalGroup` is also
deprecated
- Remove use of "custom" dropdown `MetricPickerMenu` in favor of
`Combobox` ensuring uniformity across our drop-down and removing
maintenance overhead for us down the line
- Standardize placeholders across all inputs

## Why
To have a clean and standard UI and remove use of UI deprecated
packages.
## How to test
- Query Editor:
- By creating a new query in a dashboard or Explore and interacting with
all the different query types and drop-downs
- All drop-downs should be searchable and have placeholders
- Config Editor:
- By going to a datasource and ensuring that the dropdown for Datasource
(when DB connection is enabled) and Auth type are responsive and working
as expected)
