Run unit tests on 1.18 in addition to 1.17

Description:
Run unit tests on 1.18 in addition to 1.17.

Related to open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector#5032, but for contrib.

In order to merge this PR, an admin for the repo will need to change the branch protection rules for main to require the build-and-test / unittest (1.18) and build-and-test / unittest (1.17) checks instead of the unittest check.

Marking as ready to merge since remaining steps (#8553) are to be done by a maintainer

[dashpole]

I still see unittest Expected — Waiting for status to be reported (Required) in the tests

[mx-psi]

I would say that's because the branch protection rules have not been updated yet, we need a maintainer for next steps

[codeboten]

Sadly even a maintainer can't update branch protection :(. we need someone from the TC.

@bogdandrutu PTAL.

I think we need to disable the unittest from protections temporarily, merge this PR and add the 2 new protections.

[tigrannajaryan]

unittest action removed from protections, PR merged, waiting to finish to add the new actions to protections...

[tigrannajaryan]

unittest (1.17) and unittest (1.18) actions added to protections.

Seems like it isn't able to go get grpc?

[tigrannajaryan]

Probably a transient network error.
