otel/trace: forwarding web app OTel traces

Created by: bobheadxi
We have several options here:
- some kind of endpoint in frontend that can forward OTel traces to the configured backend, e.g. an OTel collector instance (ideal)
- otherwise, we have to make OTel collectors available directly, e.g. as described in https://www.honeycomb.io/blog/opentelemetry-browser-instrumentation/
- or the web app has to send traces directly to e.g. Honeycomb
