binary publishing is currently failing

The last step before publishing a build is currently failing. See https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector-releases/actions/runs/3743728445 for an example failure.

As per @mx-psi's investigation:

What we know for certain so far

• the builder works correctly locally (I haven't tried to do a full goreleaser run though)
• on the CI, we run out of disk space (seemingly on the whole runner, since it even fails to recover the logs after that error)
• binaries have not increased dramatically in size (roughly ~2MB bigger than previous release, in line with previous bump)
• there have been no interesting changes on the tooling versions we use (QEMU, dockerx, goreleaser, Go, cosign have all the same versions)

Current most likely root causes in my mind

• the natural increase in binary size has made it so that we fill up the Github runner 14GB disk just by creating artifacts
• something changed on the runner environment (not sure what?) that made it so that we use more disk space on the goreleaser build

Useful next steps

• Running goreleaser locally on the v0.68.0 tag and seeing if something goes wrong
• Having a way to track the disk space on the Github runner while pushing the artifacts?

A suggestion if the issue is that the build is reaching size constraints: https://goreleaser.com/customization/partial/

[mx-psi]

I removed the v0.68.0 tag from this repository, we will re-tag once this is fixed

Splitting the build would also address #44

This is now fixed. https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector-releases/releases/tag/v0.68.0
