Error deploying openobserve-collector via ArgoCD: validation error for OpenTelemetryCollector.spec in agent and gateway

[Frechetta]

I attempted to deploy the openobserve-collector via ArgoCD today (after installing cert-manager and opentelemetry-operator), and ArgoCD is giving this error for the agent and gateway:

error validating data: ValidationError(OpenTelemetryCollector.spec): missing required field "managementState" in io.opentelemetry.v1beta1.OpenTelemetryCollector.spec.

Everything works fine using the standard helm install method.

It may be because ArgoCD uses helm template instead of helm install and helm lookup command not running
I'm going to hardcode some parts of helm chart to use it with argocd

You must use helm install as opposed to upgrade/template with opentelemetry collector in order to avoid the large resulting size of the output.
