Sentry tracing with automatic instrumentation

[mmailaender]

Description

Sentry extended his error reporting service with a tracing approach: https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/java/performance/

There is already a Quarkus plugin that is supporting the logging part but not tracing: https://quarkus.io/guides/logging-sentry

It would be great if this plugin could be extended to support also tracing with automatic instrumentation.

Maybe it helps to have the sentry tracing reference documentation for Spring Boot: https://docs.sentry.io/platforms/java/guides/spring-boot/performance/instrumentation/automatic-instrumentation/

Implementation ideas

I found the tracing reference implementation of Sentry Spring boot, maybe that's a good orientation: https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-java/tree/main/sentry-spring/src/main/java/io/sentry/spring/tracing

@geoand I added it to our backlog, can't promise at the moment what priority it will get.

Lets see if more 👍 comes in on this issue so we can push this up the priority list

After looking into this, I found that an approach can be to leverage the already existing OpenTelemetry support in Quarkus, since OpenTelemetry is also supported in Sentry. I managed to have a project setup sending some transactions to Sentry this way. It took me a little while, but mostly because I'm just getting started (with both Quarkus and OpenTelemetry) and not because of the final amount of code
