Research direction

Start by locating the Apache HTTPD OTEL Agent configuration and the existing ApacheModuleServiceEnvironment or ApacheModuleResourceAttributes options mentioned in the issue. Confirm how the default configuration is handled and how resource attributes reach the observability tool. Done means users can configure deployment.environment for the instrumented httpd service and observe it.
