Description

### Environment

SaaS ([https://sentry.io/]())

### Steps to Reproduce

When you receive an invitation to join a Sentry organization the invitation contains two calls-to-action:

1. Join Your Team
2. Check out the [Sentry website]()

### Expected Result

If you select to check out the Sentry website - the context of visiting this page from an invitation should be maintained. That way you can click the getting started button and be taken to the Invitation Flow.

### Actual Result

Once you opt to check out Sentry first, your only option from this view is to create a new organization. Which creates a poor user experience on first join.

### Brainstorming

Consider adding some query params to the second call to action that will redirect the user to the invitation when clicking Getting Started instead of [https://sentry.io/signup/]()

We want to define a set of [lightweight metrics]() that SDKs can automatically collect for e.g. framework, language or platform, focusing only on signals that **do NOT overlap with Tracing**. Ideally these metrics should give a quick sense of app or runtime health, … while deeper investigation will still rely on traces or profiles.

Examples**:**

* Node.js runtime metrics (e.g., event loop delay, heap usage)
* Prisma-related metrics in Next.js
* Mobile CPU / memory usage to help surface potential ANRs or app hangs

**Candidate Metrics (add more below)**
