Description
Description
We need a startup task that sends telemetry to dotCMS for measurement and reporting. This is important as we move to BSL licensing that do not require a license key or other functional safeguard against improper useages.
Acceptance Criteria
- Enable startup telemetry
- Ensure that it can be disabled if desired.

Research direction
Start by locating the dotCMS startup entry point and any existing telemetry or configuration code. Determine how startup telemetry should be sent and where an opt-out setting belongs; done means telemetry is enabled by default and can be disabled, with tests covering both behaviors.
