💡 Enhancements 💡

• cmd/mdatagen: Improve validation for resource attribute enabled field in metadata files (#12722) Resource attributes now require an explicit enabled field in metadata.yaml files, while regular attributes are prohibited from having this field. This improves validation and prevents configuration errors.

• all: Changelog entries will now have their component field checked against a list of valid components. (#13924) This will ensure a more standardized changelog format which makes it easier to parse.

• pkg/pdata: Mark featuregate pdata.useCustomProtoEncoding as stable (#13883)
