Conflict between ChromaDB and another package due to duplicate opentelemetry proto file

[hufffs]

Description:

I'm encountering a conflict when running a project that uses ChromaDB alongside another package (possibly New Relic or similar), which results in the following error:

TypeError: Couldn't build proto file into descriptor pool: duplicate file name opentelemetry/proto/common/v1/common.proto
This occurs when importing chromadb, specifically during this line in the stack trace:

Environment:

Python 3.12
ChromaDB 0.5.23
Other packages potentially bundling different versions of opentelemetry-proto
Expected behavior:

The project should run normally without protobuf descriptor conflicts between packages using opentelemetry.
