Description
Starting a discussion around what integration for Gunicorn would look like, and also discuss if it's needed.
Today, we already have integrations with web frameworks directly (e.g. flask) as well as wsgi:
https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-python/tree/master/ext
I presume that, if we support the major gateway interfaces (WSGI and ASGI), and finer grained support per framework, then everything should work fine with Gunicorn with support for ASGI in https://github.com/benoitc/gunicorn/issues/1380.
But wanted to get further thoughts.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the existing integrations under the repository's ext directory, especially the WSGI and framework integrations referenced in the issue. Compare that coverage with Gunicorn's supported interfaces and the linked ASGI discussion. Done would require a settled decision on whether a distinct Gunicorn integration is needed and a defined scope for the work.
