Make receiver data delivery guarantees explicit (open-telemetry#4262)

Resolves open-telemetry#4261

We want to make this explicit and ensure all receivers follow this pattern.
It is important for applications of the Collector where it is delivery guarantees are critical.

The OTLP receiver correctly follows the guarantees. Other receivers may need to be audited
to ensure compliance.
