ci: Enforce lower_snake_case attribute keys in OTel naming check

Add Rule G to check_otel_naming.py: every span-attribute key must be
lower_snake_case (^[a-z][a-z0-9_]*$ per dot-separated segment). This catches
camelCase, UPPERCASE, and spaces in keys, which the structural (dotted) and
source (literal) rules did not. Document it in the script README and
CONTRIBUTING.md.
