opentelemetry-collector: bundle lokiexporter, fluentforwardreceiver

Administrator requested to merge otelcol-loki-and-fluentd into main

Created by: bobheadxi

Fluent is a logging driver that Docker ships with (https://docs.docker.com/config/containers/logging/fluentd/), and Loki is something we've used for logging before and might want to in the future - this bundles relevant extensions for these services in the collector to enable easier experimentation. Inspired by https://grafana.com/blog/2022/06/23/how-to-send-logs-to-grafana-loki-with-the-opentelemetry-collector-using-fluent-forward-and-filelog-receivers/
