Description:
Don't allow changing the metric name using prometheus metric_relabel_configs. This doesn't currently work (https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector/issues/2297), and can't easily be made to work (prometheus/prometheus#8893). Until we can make it work correctly, we should fail loudly.
