Proposed commit message

metricbeat: remove redundant paths field from module Factory

The module Factory stored both beatInfo and a separate *paths.Path
field. Now that Info carries Paths, drop the redundant field and
parameter from NewFactory, and use beatInfo.Paths when creating
modules and wrappers.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The paths parameter was removed from the NewFactory function signature in metricbeat/mb/module/factory.go. The factory no longer stores paths as a field and instead accesses them through beatInfo.Paths when creating modules and wrappers. Corresponding call sites in metricbeat/beater/metricbeat.go were updated to no longer pass the paths argument when constructing factory instances. The refactoring maintains existing control flow and module instantiation behavior while centralizing path access through the beat info object.
