Description
### Problem Statement
Sentry SDKs wrap user land code, and this can show up in the stack trace which is shown in Sentry. It is a confusing signal, which misleads developers to think the Sentry SDK was involved in the error.
### Solution Brainstorm
We "beautify" stack traces in many ways already. Let's remove this in the default product view as well. It can be something the user can toggle on and off they like.
If it is not possible to "beuatify" this, or when toggled on there should be an info bubble on such stack frames which explains why the Sentry SDK is there and that there is no concern.

Research direction
No file, test, or entry point is named in the issue. Start by locating the stack-trace presentation logic for the Issues product and review how existing stack-trace beautification works. Done means Sentry SDK frames are hidden by default, with either a user toggle or an explanatory info bubble when they remain visible.
