// grpc.Dial() is deprecated in favor of grpc.NewClient(), but grpc.NewClient() changed the default resolver to dns from passthrough.
// This is a problem because the getDialOpts() function appends a custom dialer to the dial options to support Grafana Cloud PDC.
//
// See the following quote from the grpc package documentation:
// One subtle difference between NewClient and Dial and DialContext is that the
// former uses "dns" as the default name resolver, while the latter use
// "passthrough" for backward compatibility. This distinction should not matter
// to most users, but could matter to legacy users that specify a custom dialer
// and expect it to receive the target string directly.
// https://github.com/grpc/grpc-go/blob/fa274d77904729c2893111ac292048d56dcf0bb1/clientconn.go#L209
//
// Unfortunately, the passthrough resolver isn't exported by the grpc package, so we can't use it.
// The options are to continue using grpc.Dial() or implement a custom resolver.
// Since the go-grpc package maintainers intend to continue supporting grpc.Dial() through the 1.x series,
// we'll continue using grpc.Dial() until we have a compelling reason or bandwidth to implement the custom resolver.
