Description
A nested field with type nested but no sub-properties (e.g. "http_request_headers": {"type": "nested"}) causes a NullPointerException during doc-level monitor creation.
In DocLevelMonitorQueries.traverseMappingsAndUpdate(), the code assumes all non-leaf nodes have a properties map. When a field has type: "nested", it's treated as an internal node and the code unconditionally
casts nodeProps["properties"] to MutableMap<String, Any>. If the nested field has no sub-properties, this is null, causing the crash.
Fix: Added a null guard before recursing into nested field properties. Fields with type: "nested" and no properties are now safely skipped during traversal.
Testing: Added unit tests to AlertingUtilsTests covering both cases:
Nested field without properties — skipped, no exception
Nested field with properties — sub-fields traversed correctly
