The same issue can happen when tags are set with agent enroll command.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Enroll an agent with --tag option with special characters say, "Tags"
  2. Navigate to Kibana Fleet>Agents tab.
  3. Click on Tags dropdown filter and select "Tags".
  4. Observe error pop-ups related to Kuery is malformed:

Expected Result: User should not be able to enroll agents with tags with unsupported special characters which could show errors on selecting from tags filter.

@juliaElastic Is there a list of supported characters or characters we should avoid or strip?
