Research direction

Locate the google-genai interactions.create instrumentation and compare how request parameters are captured for inference and agent invocation spans. Add coverage for previous_interaction_id, confirming it maps to gen_ai.request.previous_response.id in both span types. Done when the relevant tests pass and the attribute is captured from the request parameters.
