Description

Kiali has the ability to show custom dashboards for metric graphs. Getting the yaml right can be a bit onerous. It would be simpler for users to instead provide a +/- button directly on the UI that let you customize the metrics dashboards as you see fit without needing to bother with the custom dashboard yaml.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Study the custom dashboard YAML configuration mechanism in Kiali's backend. Then explore the UI code (likely React) to find where dashboards are rendered and add interactive +/ buttons that create or delete dashboard configurations via API calls.
