Support Cost Allocation Tags to PutMetricData

Describe the Feature

aws-sdk-java-v2 has a feature to send AWS CloudWatch Custom Metrics with CloudWatchMetricPublisher.

Is your Feature Request related to a problem?

Inter component problem

When I noticed an increased cost of PutMetricData on checking Cost Explorer, I cannot investigate what causes the cost.
What I can now is just ask "[at]here Are there people who know why PutMetricData" in our Slack...

Between stages

When we have multiple stages like production, staging, and development, we need to grouping metrics count by stage. If we have tags we can use it but we don't have a way to distinguish the metrics between stages.

Proposed Solution

aws-sdk-java-v2 supports Cost Allocation Tags on sending PutMetricData

Describe alternatives you've considered

Output namespace of metrics in aws billing data.

Thank you for reaching out. Seems a reasonable ask, marking as a feature request.

After looking into the issue a bit more, it seems TagResource is only supported for alarms and Contributor Insights rules in CloudWatch as of now. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudWatch/latest/APIReference/API_TagResource.html

Unfortunately, we can't implement it until the service adds support.
