Description:

The metrics generation processor would previously hit a panic when the calculation rule was operating on a sum metric, instead of a gauge. The component proposal, initial implementation, nor the README state that it's a requirement for the metric to be a gauge, nor do I think this requirement makes sense.

I've updated the logic to account for sum metrics being used and added a test.

Testing:
Added a test for this situation, the test panics before the change and passes after.

…alculations (open-telemetry#35428)

**Description:** 
The metrics generation processor would previously hit a panic when the
calculation rule was operating on a `sum` metric, instead of a `gauge`.
The [component
proposal](open-telemetry#2722),
[initial
implementation](open-telemetry#3433),
nor the
[README](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector-contrib/tree/main/processor/metricsgenerationprocessor)
state that it's a requirement for the metric to be a `gauge`, nor do I
think this requirement makes sense.

I've updated the logic to account for sum metrics being used and added a
test.

**Testing:** 
Added a test for this situation, the test panics before the change and
passes after.
