[influxdb] remove uint fields from InfluxDB plugins (open-telemetry#3…

**Description:** <Describe what has changed.>

This change removes the Metric signal `flags` field to/from InfluxDB
conversion. The InfluxDB field is type `uint` which is not supported in
InfluxDB v1 AND the Metric `flags` field is not particularly useful
(yet) in OpenTelemetry.

**Link to tracking Issue:** <Issue number if applicable>
Fixes open-telemetry#29896

**Testing:**
Material code changes and tests in
influxdata/influxdb-observability#305

**Documentation:** <Describe the documentation added.>
Small changes to docs in
influxdata/influxdb-observability#305
