Document the APPLICATIONINSIGHTS_OPENTELEMETRY_RESOURCE_METRIC_DISABLED environment variable #35808

Description

During https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-python/pull/31355, @jeremydvoss added the following environment variable, but I didn't find it documented.

https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-python/blob/f621bd036d9d77913dd9b00c33301357c4d02d75/sdk/monitor/azure-monitor-opentelemetry-exporter/azure/monitor/opentelemetry/exporter/_constants.py#L10-L11

I think it should be documented since the _APPRESOURCEPREVIEW_ metric, which is triggered by this mechanism, spends the client's money, and the variable can help disable this optional metric.

Hello team. Could you please tell if there are any updates?

We are currently re-designing how we are going to be exposing resource metrics in Application Insights. The disabling environment variable is a temporary measure so we do not want to advocate for it's usage. If users would like to disable the resource metrics, they can.
