Describe the solution you'd like:

Discussed originally here : https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-rust/pull/1308#issuecomment-1774468050

We need to support metrics aggregation and batchprocessors for user who do not use any async runtimes. We might be able to spin up a dedicated background thread to achieve this.

As tried here, the ticks are coming very unpredictably. It is always off by ~2-5 secs. I'll check if using a dedicated thread will improve accuracy, and enable Metrics to work without any async runtimes. (for those users who prefer that!)
