Clarify that schema transformations SHOULD overwrite input data
Resolves: open-telemetry#3497 Alternates Considered ===================== Instead of requiring overwriting the input data we could say that the transformation SHOULD be aborted if a conflict is detected or that transformation SHOULD be ignored if a conflict is detected. The chosen approach (overwriting) seems to be best balance between maintaining reasonable outcome (keep the more important data, discarding the less important data) while also having minimal complexity of implementation (aborting and reporting errors is more complicated and more costly).
