End User Changelog

💡 Enhancements 💡

• pdata: Add custom grpc/encoding that replaces proto and calls into the custom marshal/unmarshal logic in pdata. (#13631) This change should not affect other gRPC calls since it fallbacks to the default grpc/proto encoding if requests are not pdata/otlp requests.
• pdata: Avoid copying the pcommon.Map when same origin (#13731) This is a very large improvement if using OTTL with map functions since it will avoid a map copy.
• exporterhelper: Respect num_consumers when batching and partitioning are enabled. (#13607)

🧰 Bug fixes 🧰

• pdata: Correctly parse OTLP payloads containing non-packed repeated primitive fields (#13727, #13730) This bug prevented the Collector from ingesting most Histogram, ExponentialHistogram, and Profile payloads.
