Release highlights

• The opentelemetry source can now decode data according to the standard OpenTelemetry protocolfor all telemetry data types (logs, metrics and traces). This eliminates the need for complex event remapping. It greatly simplifies configuration for OTEL -> Vector -> OTEL use cases or when forwarding data to any system that expects OTLP-formatted telemetry.
• A new varint_length_delimited framing option is now available which enables compatibility with standard protobuf streaming implementations and tools like ClickHouse.
• Introduced a new incremental_to_absolute transform, useful when metric data might be lost in transit or for creating a historical record of the metric.
• A new okta source for consuming Okta system logs is now available.
• The exec secrets option now supports protocol version v1.1 which can be used with the Datadog Secret Backend.
