Description
Session.pooled currently takes one effect, but if you want to use e.g. tracing in Kleisli[F, Span[F], *], you'd need a Span[F] to even allocate the session pool (external resource). If possible, there should be a way to use two different effects, so that the outer resource can be allocated without a span.

Research direction
Start by reading the Session.pooled entry point and its surrounding resource and effect types. Work out an API that allocates the session pool without Span[F] while allowing sessions to use Kleisli[F, Span[F], *]; done means the issue's tracing use case is supported without requiring a span for pool allocation.
