Add backoff settings to the scale performance preset, as described in elastic/elastic-agent#4469, to reduce load on large deployments.

Disruptive User Impact

If users have already set an output backoff while using the scale preset, this will override it (and possibly reduce the effective backoff).

However, this reduces cluster overload in the more common case that users have default backoff settings.
