K8s metrics
This document describes instruments and attributes for common K8s level metrics in OpenTelemetry. These metrics are collected from technology-specific, well-defined APIs (e.g. Kubelet's API).
Metrics in k8s. instruments SHOULD be attached to a K8s Resource
and therefore inherit its attributes, like k8s.pod.name and k8s.pod.uid.
