Description

### Problem Statement

Right now, Sentry supports automatic distributed tracing for services communicating via HTTP requests.

For services that communicate via SQS/SNS, distributed tracing requires manual custom instrumentation.

In a case where a customer has 1000 lambdas, instrumenting distributed tracing on each lambda isn't feasible. I'm not sure how technically difficult this would be, but it would be awesome to have a solution that works automatically for SNS/SQS.

### Solution Brainstorm

Automatically instrumented tracing between services communicating via SQS/SNS
