Changed

• ⚠️ Breaking Change: go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk/metric now applies a default cardinality limit of 2000 to comply with the Metrics SDK specification recommendation. New attribute sets are dropped when the cardinality limit is reached. The measurement of these sets are aggregated into a special attribute set containing attribute.Bool("otel.metric.overflow", true).

[dependabot]

Looks like go.opentelemetry.io/otel is up-to-date now, so this is no longer needed.

[dependabot]

OK, I won't notify you again about this release, but will get in touch when a new version is available. If you'd rather skip all updates until the next major or minor version, let me know by commenting @dependabot ignore this major version or @dependabot ignore this minor version. You can also ignore all major, minor, or patch releases for a dependency by adding an ignore condition with the desired update_types to your config file.

If you change your mind, just re-open this PR and I'll resolve any conflicts on it.
