Description

Adds automation allowing to release individual components.
Packages that can be released individually are:

• excluded from the main release
• must have individual changelog
• follow the same release process and versioning rules:
  • prepare minor/patch that creates
    • long-term package-release/{package}/v{version} branch
    • PRs to update changelog and versions in release branch and main
  • release
• adds changelogs and versions for for components that are currently released manually as individual packages (opentelemetry-resource-detector-azure, opentelemetry-sdk-extension-aws, opentelemetry-propagator-aws-xray)
