**Description:**
- Adds `component.MustNewType` to create a type. This function panics if
the type has invalid characters. Add similar functions
`component.MustNewID` and `component.MustNewIDWithName`.
- Adds `component.Type.String` to recover the string
- Use `component.MustNewType`, `component.MustNewID`,
`component.MustNewIDWithName` and `component.Type.String` everywhere in
this codebase. To do this I changed `component.Type` into an opaque
struct and checked for compile-time errors.
Some notes:
1. All components currently on core and contrib follow this rule. This
is still breaking for other components.
2. A future PR will change this into a struct, to actually validate this
(right now you can just do `component.Type("anything")` to bypass
validation). I want to do this in two steps to avoid breaking contrib
tests: we first introduce this function, and after that we change into a
struct.

* [pipelines] Change test to not reuse same processor twice in one pipeline
* Add note to documentation about reuse of processors within a pipeline

The main reason is to remove the circular dependency between the config (including sub-packages) and component. Here is the current state:
* component depends on config
* config/sub-package[grpc, http, etc.] depends on config & component
Because of this "circular" dependency, we cannot split for example "config" into its own module, only if all the other config sub-packages are also split.

The problem was that the MetricProvider is initialized into the "service.telemetry.MetricProvider" after components were created. This change was not a trivial change because the process telemetry initialization requires the ballast size, which is available after the extensions are initialized, because of that I split the initialization of the MetricProvider/oc.Registry from the initialization of the process telemetry.
