Separate publishing of semantic conventions for more control over version

[JamieDanielson]

That is a fair point. In fact since we are working on semantic conventions now and the version numbers are close to matching up, I think we are going to separate the publishing of the semantic conventions package so we have more control over the version number. This will hopefully make it more clear going forward.

In the meantime I will close this issue as a duplicate being tracked elsewhere for updating semantic conventions.
