Changes

Removes this text in the semconv:

The pluralization rule does not apply in this case.

Because that text predated the "namespace pluralization rule" added in #267 and is meant to only apply to the other pluralization rules (not the namespace pluralization rule).

This is confusing now (with the addition of #267), and I think the easiest fix is just to remove the text, since the heading just above it already mentions it:

Use count Instead of Pluralization for UpDownCounters
