Component(s)

receiver/otlpjsonfile

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

This is useful for some usecases like:
- Sending a heartbeat log to a logging backend, as a signal that the
logging agent is alive
- Sending static metadata as metrics to metrics backend. The metadata
can be read using the otlpjsonfilereceiver that uses this package
and config.

Describe the solution you'd like

A config knob that allows re-reading the file at an interval from the beginning.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Separate receiver for this use case. But that is not ideal to maintain.

**Description:** <Describe what has changed.>
<!--Ex. Fixing a bug - Describe the bug and how this fixes the issue.
Ex. Adding a feature - Explain what this achieves.-->
This change adds a config option to allow users to replay static
telemetry at an interval (poll_interval is the configurable interval).

This is useful for some  usecases like:
- Sending a heartbeat log to a logging backend, as a signal that the
logging agent is alive
- Sending static metadata as metrics to metrics backend. The metadata
can be read using the `otlpjsonfilereceiver` that uses this package and
config.

**Link to tracking Issue:** 

#31533

**Testing:**
- Manual testing
- unit test for the fileconsumer
- test for the `otlpjsonfilereceiver`

**Documentation:** <Describe the documentation added.>
