Include AWS CloudWatch Logs reciever #1080

Request

https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector-contrib/tree/v0.102.0/receiver/awscloudwatchreceiver to be included in Alloy.

Use case

I need to get logs from CloudWatch into Loki. In addition I need autodiscovery of log groups with some prefix.

Existing solution of CloudWatch Logs -> Firehose -> Alloy is too complex and costly to maintain. Also this solution must be reconfigured every time new log group is added or removed, which makes whole solution not viable for my case.

I agree, this would be a great addition.

I'm currently setting up a lambda-promtail Terraform module as a workaround but that lacks autodiscovery which is a real pain.
