nit: kind of strange to mix platform semantic conventions and other strings. Maybe return semconv.CloudPlatformGCPKubernetesEngine.Value.AsString() here instead?

Yeah, I thought about that too. I don't think it's perfect either way (felt weird to return the platform as GCP when it could be any k8s).
It's odd to me that there isn't an attribute to indicate generic K8S platform. The best you can do, as far as I can tell, is just infer if k8s.cluster.name is set. And it's not practical to enumerate every k8s-based cloud platform

Fixes #627
This broadens the exporter's monitored resource mapping to match anything with
k8s.cluster.nameresource attribute to a k8s monitored resource. Usingk8s.cluster.namemeans that any cloud provider k8s platforms like GKE, EKS, or AKS should be identified, as well as non-cloud clusters like local k8s or minikube.This is a change from the previous behavior, in which any non-GKE kubernetes resources were mapped to
generic_node.
