observability: tracing & evaluation beyond metrics + event log

Hi @addu390, 

I don't have a strong opinion on OTel compatibility itself; it mostly comes 
down to whether there's clear demand from users.

On the implementation side, OTel could plug in as just another logger for the 
event log. The event log already writes through pluggable loggers (currently 
SLF4J and FILE), so OTel could sit alongside them as a third option. For users 
it would just be picking an output backend among otel / slf4j / file, which 
means the same data isn't recorded twice and runtime overhead shouldn't change 
much. One caveat: wiring OTel in might require some changes to the current 
plugin interface.

I slightly lean toward waiting until there's clear demand before building the 
OTel logger, but I'm also okay with you or anyone else picking this up now, as 
long as it doesn't affect existing functionality or performance.
