Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I opened this issue to track the work that is needed in order to get the Micrometer Metrics Bridge from the alpha status to stable.

Up until the latest release (2.16.0), the instrumentation was using a class from an incubating API. That was removed in https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-java-instrumentation/commit/b3233c4203603a7e3860cc4429da1e858ac67838, so there is no more dependencies on alpha libraries from what I can see.

Describe the solution you'd like

I'm not sure what is needed to get this instrumentation to the stable state, but I'm available to help out getting there.

Describe alternatives you've considered

No response

Additional context

@brunobat perhaps you have some inputs on this from Quarkus?
