Research direction

Start by locating the objtrace extension and the package and release configuration that build and distribute it. Map the current dependency and wheel workflow, then define a separately installable objtrace package while keeping scout-apm pure Python; verify the existing tests and build or release checks.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

The objtrace extension complicates the release process greatly, by requiring binary wheels to be built for many architectures. It's just a few hundred lines of C that rarely changes between releases. It could be split into its own package to simplify scout-apm into a pure-Python package.
