Specifications for OpenTelemetry
**What are you trying to achieve?** I would like to add missing environment variables to configure compression on (span) exporters to the [OpenTelemetry Environment Variable Specification](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-specification/blob/main/specification/sdk-environment-variables.md) and clarify the compression...
Fixes #2860 Mostly adds specifics for log attribute limit configuration, but also refactors the wording of the span specifics as I found it a bit confusing.
The term "distribution" should be defined in the spec (e.g. glossary) given that it is already described under https://opentelemetry.io/docs/concepts/distributions/.
