Added instructions to disable multi-tenancy for OpenSearch and OpenSearch Dashboards.

Description

Current documentation only instructs how to disable multi-tenancy in Opensearch Dashboards. Multi-tenancy in OpenSearch is enabled by default and must also be disabled when the workspaces feature is enabled.

Version

3.x

I'm reluctant to add to documentation here. Personally, I'm not aligned with the current implementation of workspaces. We can add to the documentation for sure, but I will not be marking approval. You can see more information on why I have taken this stance here: opensearch-project/security#6119

@cwperks I'm inclined to agree with you, but it the ability to disable already exists. This is only documentation, so may be @pawelw1 should add a clear banner indicating warning about the security gap be an acceptable approach ??
@SuZhou-Joe thoughts since you approved this?
