The PR contains a proposal, along with some comments from previous discussions, for managing replace directives in the Alloy project and preparing for the arrival of new modules as part of the OTel Engine project

Relates to #5053

In addition to the new Collector module, we will also be introducing a third Alloy Engine Extension module which serves as a bridge between OTel engine and Alloy engine. OTel extensions are modules by definition, just like other components \- so introducing another module is less of a decision than a necessity. To make matters more complicated, the modules are all interlinked: OTel engine imports Alloy and the Alloy Extension, and Alloy Extension itself imports Alloy.

The images don't seem to work in GH for me.

hmm, it is supposed to show in GH? I just used whatever the exporter tool gave me which seems to embed the image but maybe you're supposed to do it different. I can have a look at how others do it
