Lowered protobuf requirements

[madhavajay]

Firstly, I love this plugin ❤️.

However we are using tensorflow and related packages which are living in the dark ages of protobuf==3.19.x. I also noticed that this package doesn't use protobuf, but rather its upstream packages do, which begs the question, is it necessary to pin a specific protobuf version in this package?

I have also tested the newer version of opentelemetry-*==1.14.0 and the unit tests are passing. However its entirely possible there are some network features that need testing and may break compatibility.

I can change the PR to remove the protobuf dependency entirely, or not update opentelemetry if thats an issue.

Im mostly here for the awesome @ decorator!

Thanks for the PR! We will review with our sample documentations and test it works and hopefully merge soon
