Describe the bug
It seems like we've lost the OTEL logs format/schema or at least we stopped showing it in the observability/logs page.

There are the only columns we see for logs now:

Time | Level | Service | Message

example log message:

Otel Logs, Otel Metrics, and Otel Traces, should all be in OTEL logs format. It is not clear yet if flowgger (syslog/gelf) should also be in otel format or if they should go into OCSF, I think just to be consistent, they should all just go into an OTEL format. Aligning with OCSF works great for datalakes, but OTEL is a more prevalent standard/requirement for most enterprises I think.
