Daniel Jaglowski 76b14b16c2 Add semantic conventions for log media attributes (#2022)
Logs are transmitted via several common media, such as files and
iostreams. This PR establishes semantic conventions for describing the
file or iostream from which a log was read. Notably, these attributes
are not resource attributes, as the medium used to tranmit a log is not
considered to be the originator of the log.

Log Attribute Semantic Conventions

Status: Experimental

The following semantic conventions for logs are defined:

  • Log Media: Semantic attributes that may be used in describing the source of a log.

Apart from semantic conventions for logs, traces, and metrics, OpenTelemetry also defines the concept of overarching Resources with their own Resource Semantic Conventions.
