Replacing these with the events from packages\windows\data_stream\powershell\_dev\test\pipeline\test-events.json as the ones we had here before are PowerShell Operational events.

Using a common event that contains both the script and the signature (I had to strip most of the signature content to keep it small here.)

Summary
User Fields
Currently, the Windows integration doesn’t populate
user.nameanduser.domainfor most PowerShell events, except for a few 4103 events (but not the majority). This PR proposes using thewinlog.user.*fields to populate them, as these values appear to remain consistent across events.Screenshots
script_block_signature
This field has never been populated in my events, and the reason might be that
dissectis looking only for the signature, while the script is usually included in the same script block.So I'm suggesting using gsub to remove the non-signature content before using dissect:
Another point is that most PowerShell scripts with signatures end up having them truncated, since PowerShell logs have size limits, the signature often gets split across two events (Example).
