Can TCP Receiver Support More Encoding Extensions?

[vaisu21]

Hi @djaglowski

I see the current encodings supported by the TCP Receiver. Can you confirm if it supports any encoding extensions that are not listed in the documentation? I’ve developed a custom encoding extension that converts a non-OTLP format into OTLP, and I’m interested in enabling it for the tcp receiver

The TCP receiver does not support encoding extensions. The discussion in #37872 applies just the same here.
