Description
Cross posting the bug here: https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector/issues/6477
I think even if opentelemetry collector make is compatible, cpp client may still want to export all tags in strings, in case the user was using an old OpenTelemetry Collector

Research direction
Start with the linked OpenTelemetry Collector issue #6477 and compare its compatibility discussion with the C++ Zipkin Exporter behavior described here. Determine the expected handling of tag values for current and older Collector versions; done means the Collector’s Zipkin receiver accepts exports from the C++ client, including the relevant tags.
