Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

There are functions like convert_summary_count_val_to_sum and convert_summary_sum_val_to_sum, which can convert values in summary to sum and count. However, the have some limitions:

• the suffix added is always _sum or _count. But according to OpenTelemetry's convention, . should be used instead of _ in this case.
• Support for quantile is missing.

Describe the solution you'd like

1. Update function specification: convert_summary_count_val_to_sum(aggregation_temporality, is_monotonic, Optional[suffix]). The new optional parameters allow setting the suffix to add. By default, suffix is ".sum".
2. New function: converter_summary_quantile_val_to_gauge(Optional[suffix]). The suffix defaults to ".quantile_%s", where %s will be replaced with the quantile value and the decimal point will be removed. For example, ".quantile_99", ".quantile_999" will be added.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Use a single function or component to convert summary to two sums and a gauge.
