Description

As part of https://github.com/elastic/kibana/pull/168970, we have identified a new use case where allowing users to query for API keys by date of creation would improve user experience in cases with larger data sets.

Once the above feature has been implemented, users will be able to retrieve a maximum of 10k keys after which they'll need to refine the results using the queries supported by the Query API key API from Elasticsearch. Even though the endpoint supports querying by creation time, the UI does not offer support to do so.

Research direction
Examine the existing API key management UI in Kibana (likely in x pack/plugins/security). Understand how the current query for API keys is built and where the creation date filter could be added. Review the linked PR #168970 for context on the Elasticsearch query API key endpoint. Look at the UI components that display API keys and consider adding a date range picker. Check if there are any existing patterns for date filtering in other Kibana pages.
