Handle system.process.* for OTel translated metrics #309

Closed lahsivjar closed 2 months ago

lahsivjar commented 2 months ago

system.process.* fields are required on the process metrics to make the UI work. These are non-ecs fields but must haves for the Processes tab in the Host metrics UI to work.

All these fields are processed as data point attributes added to the remapped OTel metrics due to UI constraints (explained in code comments).
