ResourceAttributes type does not comply with spec

[blumamir]

The type for ResourceAttributes is defended here as:

/** Interface for Resource attributes  */
export interface ResourceAttributes {
  [key: string]: number | string | boolean;
}

However, the spec says here that:

A Resource is an immutable representation of the entity producing telemetry as Attributes

And when following the "Attributes" link it says:

The attribute value is either:

• A primitive type: string, boolean, double precision floating point (IEEE 754-1985) or signed 64 bit integer.
• An array of primitive type values. The array MUST be homogeneous, i.e., it MUST NOT contain values of different types.

It seems to me that according to spec, the ResourceAttributes should be identical to SpanAttributes (or just Attributes for api > 1.1.0). e.g. - it should also allow arrays of homogeneous primitives.

Is it intentional?

No likely not intentional
