Hello:
       Will an extension pack mechanism like the opentelemetry java agent be 
supported in the future? 
address<https://opentelemetry.io/docs/instrumentation/java/automatic/extensions/#:~:text=Extensions%20add%20capabilities%20to%20the%20agent%20without%20having,or%20alter%20the%20agent%20code%20in%20any%20way.>

We have a requirement to perform some operations to collect profiles after all 
span is created and before span is stopped. Previously, we only need to 
implement Spanprocessor using extensions mechanism in opentelemetry java agent. 
Similar to grafana implementation, project address, 
https://github.com/grafana/otel-profiling-java, but no similar mechanism on 
skywalking, whether the future will support?

So far I've done this by adding extra logic to the skywalking java agent's 
createEntrySpan, createLocalSpan, createExstSpan, stopSpan methods, but this 
only works for my local projects. And case by case, I still expect the official 
community to support the extension mechanism.
