### Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe the problem.
We have a feature in OpenTelemetry .NET which allows users to capture logging scopes which may be active when a log is emitted: https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-dotnet/blob/752778270def63bc710f286856cc9ffe48e7bf39/src/OpenTelemetry/Logs/ILogger/OpenTelemetryLoggerOptions.cs#L36
OTel exporters typically ship off scope KVPs with all the KVPs taken from the logged `TState`: https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-dotnet/blob/752778270def63bc710f286856cc9ffe48e7bf39/src/OpenTelemetry/Logs/LogRecordScope.cs#L44
A user raised this issue: https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-dotnet/issues/5239
They are asking for a filtering mechanism because some of the data currently automatically added by AspNetCore (for example ConnectionId) isn't very useful but they do want to capture their own scopes.

### Describe the solution you'd like
I don't know if we _need_ a solution, but the question is should we expose some settings to allow users to opt-out of these scopes or perhaps some of the values they emit?
