This werk introduces the ability to monitor multiple metrics per service within the service monitoring rule for open telemetry.

Previously monitoring rules could only be defined for the first metric detected in a service. Prior to (Werk #18209)[https://checkmk.com/werk/18209], rules could only be applied if exactly one metric was available for the service.

With this change rulesets allow you to specify a list of metric names. You can now monitor several metrics in the same service, each with its own thresholds or levels.
