Description
It would be very helpful if the zipkin proto exporter python dependencies would be upgraded
The opentelemetry-proto dependency was already upgraded to "protobuf>=3.19, < 5.0"
but the zipkin exporter is on ~=3.12
making it impossible to upgrade other libraries which require protobuf >= 4.0

Research direction
Start in the dependency metadata for opentelemetry-exporter-zipkin-proto-http and compare its protobuf constraint with opentelemetry-proto’s declared range. Update the constraint to permit protobuf 4.x while retaining compatibility, then run the exporter’s dependency and test checks to confirm installation and behavior.
