Add OTLP Benchmark to measure push performance

[SungJin1212]

This PR adds a benchmark to measure OTLP push performance.

The Benchmark results are:

goos: darwin
goarch: arm64
pkg: github.com/cortexproject/cortex/pkg/util/push
cpu: Apple M1 Max

Currently, our OTLPHandler uses a Prometheus converter, which appears to cause significant memory allocation during the conversion to the Cortex format.

I was thinking we could manage a dedicated Cortex converter, which can directly convert OTLP to Cortex format. This would allow us to skip the intermediate conversion from Prometheus format to Cortex. If the case, the memory allocation will be reduced, but this is expected to come at the cost of tracking overhead.

@yeya24 @friedrichg
WDYT?

Hey @SungJin1212, I think that makes sense. But at the same time, do we have a benchmark to understand OTLP performance? If not let's create one so that we can compare the performance impact and its baseline

[SungJin1212]

@yeya24
Yeah, let me add a Benchmark to show current memory allocations.

@yeya24
I added a Benchmark to evaluate push performance.
