Dear Maintainer,

As of v8.2602.0 rsyslog has added an OpenTelemetry output module,
omotel. This module is useful for pushing logs to other logging stacks,
such as AWS Cloudwatch, which support ingesting OpenTelemtry logs. I
would love to have it present in the Debian builds. Thanks for
maintaining rsyslog. Yours kindly, Jesse
