Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Current Agent export database queries, but they are only available as part of the Transaction traces. For other agents, like Ruby, we can also use the "Databases" tab, which includes query entries and can be really useful to diagnose issues in a way that the current support can't.
Describe the solution you'd like
Would be great if Elixir agent exports all data required for that section to work out-of-the-box. There is not specification AFAICT, otherwise we can work together to contribute a patch with that feature support.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Create custom instrumentation around Telemetry. It works, but doesn't integrate with overall NR experience.

Research direction
Start by reviewing how the Elixir Agent currently exports database queries and how its Telemetry instrumentation is used. Check the available New Relic Databases-tab requirements, since the issue says no specification was found. Done means the agent exports all data needed for that section to work out of the box without custom instrumentation.
