For Open Telemetry, implement a similar throttling technique to the legacy exporter. Fixes CrunchyData#4532
How to set it in a cluster spec:
```yaml
spec:
instrumentation:
metrics:
pgBackRestInfoThrottleMinutes: 30
```
If omitted, behavior remains equivalent to legacy default throttle
(10 minutes).

Type of Changes:
What is the current behavior (link to any open issues here)?
As documented in #4532, Open Telemetry monitoring of a pgbackrest S3 store generates steep egress fees. I think the default should have a low impact on egress, and it seems the legacy exporter did implement a throttle for this reason.
What is the new behavior (if this is a feature change)?
For Open Telemetry, implement a similar throttling technique to the legacy exporter, with the same default (10 minutes). The 2nd commit includes a configuration option.
Fixes #4532
