No support for Structured Logging

[joshbartley]

What happened:
OpenTelemetry Log exporters support structured logging which provides a way to increase log compression by not formatting the string during log creation. Using the Clickhouse Datasource, this logs stay in that format and are not helpful when shown.

What you expected to happen:
Message Count {0} {1} {2} to have the option to convert using the Labels with Keys 0, 1, 2.

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible):
Screenshot below.

Anything else we need to know?:

This is C#, other log formats use a label name Message Count {messageCount}

Environment:

• Grafana version: Grafana v11.2.2
• Plugin version: 4.4.0
• OS Grafana is installed on: Ubuntu
• User OS & Browser: Windows, Chrome
• Others:

*I attempted this as a feature request though Github said that was not recognized as a type.

Fascinating. I wonder if this is logic belongs in the Grafana logs panel, which already knows about the log Body and Labels
