Summary
PR 273501 adds an AlertDelayField component to the threshold rule builder inside the alerting v2 rule form flyout. The field is visible only when the rule kind is set to alert (not signal mode) and supports three delay modes: Immediate, Breaches, and Duration. This brings the threshold builder to parity with the existing ES|QL compose mode.
Why this needs docs: Adding a new UI field with three configurable modes to the rule creation form requires documentation so users understand what the field controls and how to choose between Immediate, Breaches, and Duration modes.

- What the docs say: No specific Alerting v2 threshold rule builder docs found yet.
- What to add: Document the alert delay field in the alerting v2 threshold rule builder. Explain the three modes (Immediate: fires as soon as the threshold is breached; Breaches: fires after N consecutive breaches; Duration: fires after the threshold is breached for a set time period) and that the field is only visible in alert mode (not signal mode). Requires alerting:v2:enabled advanced setting. Applies from 9.5.0 (technical preview), stack and serverless.
