[Defend Workflows] Event Filter added from Host>Events Page always defaults to Windows OS, even for Linux or macOS hosts #239043

@sukhwindersingh-qasource

Description

Describe the bug:

  • When user attempts to add an event filter from the Host Page, the option to select the operating system (OS) is not available.
  • Additionally, no matter if the user navigates to the Host Details page of a Linux or macOS host and tries to add an event filter from those hosts, the OS is still automatically selected as Windows, which is not the correct behavior.
