Description
Add OpenTelemetry tracing spans across poolmgrd -> poolmgr-hostagent -> flintlock gRPC calls to make cross-service latency and failures easier to diagnose, complementing the existing Prometheus metrics (#13).

Research direction
Start by tracing the existing gRPC call paths from poolmgrd through poolmgr-hostagent to flintlock, and inspect the Prometheus metrics work in issue #13 for related instrumentation points. The work is done when cross-service latency and failures can be followed through OpenTelemetry spans across these calls.
