Currently, the Rabbitmq receiver only supports versions 3.8 and 3.9. Is there any plan to support older versions in the future?

Describe the solution you'd like

Currently supported versions 3.8 and 3.9 are too new. Many enterprise environments use older versions, which makes it impossible to collect metrics.

Hello @shenlvcheng, it looks like as it is, 3.10 is already unsupported, which is more recent than the supported versions of this receiver. I'll defer to code owners, but it may be hard to justify adding support for more out of date versions.

Have you tested to confirm that older versions aren't working? Can you share what's not working?

I can't speak for the code owners here, but you'd be welcome to submit a PR adding support for any version you need 👍

I generally don't think we should explicitly support versions which are EOL. If anything I believe we are due for updating our supported versions to 3.11+, but someone would need to test them first.
