Description

**Tracing Improvements (with a focus on OpenTelemetry)**

The OpenTelemetry tracer that currently exists in Envoy needs some updating for both accuracy and flexibility. See the doc below for discussion.

Additionally, some of the core Envoy tracing behavior could use improvements, especially around the interaction with Async streams.
