Allow nested fields in the composite aggregation (#37178)

This changes adds the support to handle `nested` fields in the `composite`
aggregation. A `nested` aggregation can be used as parent of a `composite`
aggregation in order to target `nested` fields in the `sources`.

Closes #28611

 This will create composite buckets from the values created by two values source, a `date_histogram` and a `terms`.
 Each bucket is composed of two values, one for each value source defined in the aggregation.
 Any type of combinations is allowed and the order in the array is preserved
