🛑 Breaking changes 🛑

• pkg/service: Remove service_name, service_instance_id, and service_version as constant labels on every internal metric datapoint. These attributes are already present in target_info and were being duplicated on each series for OpenCensus backwards compatibility. (#14811)
  Previously, the collector stamped every internal metric series (e.g. otelcol_process_runtime_heap_alloc_bytes)
  with service_name, service_instance_id, and service_version labels to match the old OpenCensus behavior.
  These attributes are now only present in the target_info metric, which is the correct Prometheus/OTel convention.
  Users who filter or group by these labels on individual metrics will need to update their queries to use
  target_info joins instead.
