Hey everyone! I have a simple question, but no answer I cannot find in the documentation. I want to manage Kibana settings via a configuration file. I'm using ECK operator and bootstrapping Kibana via the operator. I want to have only one place where these settings should be configured. So, in this way, I don't need to manage settings by hand every time when Kibana reinstalled or moved to another place.  
For example, I want to bootstrap predefined spaces, I know that the operator allows provide config to `kibana.yml` but I don't see any available settings for configuring spaces in that file. Is it possible to set all settings via file or another approach to making auto-provision of Kibana?
