Feature Request: OpenTelemetry and OTLP export

[hoerup]

We have a bit of issues with some performance after upgrading to v8 (see #07783418 ) and as an attempt i tried enabling distributed tracing, but i couldn't find heads or tails in the traces that was collected

Please consider enabling OTLP export to a customer supplied otlp compatible endpoint - so we have some insights ourselves on how the application is performing.

If im not mistaken, then you are currently using Microsoft Azure Application Insights. I don't have any experience with AAI, but it looks like it can be configured to use open telemetry.

Otherwise maybe even consider switching to pure opentelemetry - in our team we use these packages to get a over view of all inbound and outbound HTTP request + all efcore - and exported to a OTLP compatible endpoint so all the devs can investigate any performance issues.
