Exporter/opensearch: logstash_format or something similar

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

I order to make use of OpenSearch index state management policies, it is useful to be able add a YYYY.MM.DD suffix to indexes.

Describe the solution you'd like

I would like the same logstash_format configuration as elasticsearchexporter.

Alternatively, if feature parity for logstash_format doesn't make sense, I'd like some other way of adding a date suffix to indexes.

Describe alternatives you've considered

My current workaround is to set the namespace of the opensearch log exporter to the current date whenever the OTel collector helm chart is installed/updated. Installs normally happen a few times daily so it's good enough to break up the index for state (lifecycle) management.

I don't have a lot of experience with OpenSearch, but I see it's a somewhat common use case to include the date in the name of indices for ISM. I'll remove needs triage.

I'll defer to code owners for implementation details, but you're welcome to submit a PR in the meantime if you'd like!
