Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently the otlp exporter's endpoint validation only checks that the endpoint has :PORT and that PORT is an integer. This does not handle situations like:

  • port in the wrong place: https://my-backend/v1/traces:4317
  • invalid dns endpoint: dns://my-backend:4317

Describe the solution you'd like
Add more intelligent endpoint validation that can detect these errors.

Additional context
These are both situations I've seen customer using the collector experience.
