Description
This allows fallback support, where we can propose alternative definitions of an attribute that will be tried in order. For example, if we wanted to get the version of the tracer we could define an attribute with a definition like below, first trying the hypertrace version attribute, and if missing using the otel spec defined one. Changes to support evaluating this will be added to the attribute reader.
Testing
API addition only, but verified it functionally in an e2e setup.
