New Data Asset for Metrics

[Denoca]

Most of the metrics nowadays are for operations (CPU, Network, Disk Usage, Etc). I understand that metrics don't have any value to control or add governance for that.

However, the same solution for those metrics (like Prometheus), can be used for Business Metrics (Transactions per second, Asset Requests, Impressions per second, etc.), and these metrics can be ingested via a pipeline and presented in a dashboard.

Therefore, I can see the benefits of adding governance for those metrics (Owner, Tier, Lineage, etc)

My suggestion here is to add metrics as a Data Asset, implementing the definitions already mentioned here: https://github.com/open-metadata/OpenMetadata/blob/main/openmetadata-spec/src/main/resources/json/schema/entity/data/metrics.json
