…me-series indices that contain docs within timeframe of range query filter in search input (#1701) (#1712)

* optimize bucket level monitor to resolve alias to query only those time-series indices that contain docs within timeframe of range query filter in search input



* add tests to verify alias based optimziation scenarios



* fix tests to verify aggregation query on alias optimziation with indices being skipped and not skipped



* null check addded
