The pull requests to update OTel components created by Dependabot have been consistently incomplete and unfit for merging. They also don't include a changelog entry, which we want to be included with OTel updates. We have been relying on manual updates of OTel components for the last couple versions, with the intention to move to a different automation in the future that satisfies all requirements (see #6132). At this point, the Dependabot PRs are just noise, so let's remove this automation to get rid of the noise. Part of #6132 (cherry picked from commit 059721b)
